| Arthur S. Brisbane |
First things first: this is not the Arthur Brisbane you may be thinking of. No, this is not the most famous editor of the 20th century (I know disappointing for those of you who actually knew about a famous editor...), but of course the next best man: his grandson. Obviously these writing genes were kept in the family.
Arthur S. Brisbane is an op - ed writer and editor of the New York Times. He was just appointed as the editor for this newspaper in June 2010, replacing Clark Hoyt. With this job, he responds to comments and complaints of the public conerning the coverage and journalism of the newspaper. His education in writing began at Havard College, and his experience in newspaper includes the reporter and editor for the The Washington Post, the editor and publisher of the The Kansas City Star, and the senior executive of Knight Ridder.

Even with this experience, he has not won any awards that I can find. I'm sure he will reach that level someday looking at the career of his grandfather. However, I think it would be safe to say that becoming the editor of the New York Times is a pretty stellar accomplishment, if not an award in and of itself.
Today, Mr. Brisbane expects to tackle tough issues in today's world covering anything from local to national news. His column circultes through the op - ed section in the New York Times website online. I will be following his op - ed articles, hopefully gaining more knowledge of the world around me, or as Mrs. Helbing always says, the WPP ("world past Prague"). WPP, here I come.
