197187881Philadelphia: J. B. Lippincott Company 1971. First Edition stated presumed first printing. Hardcover. Very good/Good. Christopher E. Jones Author photograph. The format is approximately 5.875 inches by 8.625 inches. x 242 2 pages. Illustrated endpapers. Illustrations. A Glossary of Newspaper Terms. Index. Ms. Adler wrote ''A Day in the Life of The New York Times'' an account hour by hour of what the newspaper's staff did to put out the issue of Feb. 28 1969 a date chosen arbitrarily on which there was no earth-shaking news. Ruth Adler kept the staff of The New York Times informed about its own milestones and behind-the-scenes adventures and shaped the legends and lore of The Times for other journalists and students for 33 years as editor of the newspaper's in-house journal Times Talk. Behind every news story there is an untold -- or rarely told -- tale of the reporter's personal experience: the hazards of covering a war or a riot the grind of the campaign trail a correspondent's travails with foul weather bad food crazy hours unworkable communications and implausible expense accounts. Ms. Adler chronicled these tales and countless more routine doings for the newspaper's 5000 employees in a house organ that was one of the best and most widely read periodicals on the practice of journalism. Ruth Adler was born on July 10 1910 and graduated from Smith College and attended the Sorbonne in Paris for a year before joining The Times in 1934. In 1947 she was asked to establish an internal news publication for the staff. Arthur Hays Sulzberger the publisher gave her a small staff and complete autonomy to design edit and produce Times Talk. When Ms. Adler retired in 1980 a full issue of Times Talk was devoted to her. The New York Times NYT is a national daily newspaper based in New York City. A newspaper of record it is the second-largest newspaper by circulation and one of the longest-running newspapers in the United States. The New York Times is published by The New York Times Company a publicly traded company; since 1896 the company has been chaired by the Ochs-Sulzberger family including its current chairman and the paper's publisher A. G. Sulzberger. The Times is headquartered at The New York Times Building in Manhattan. The New York Times covers domestic national and international news and comprises opinion pieces investigative reports and reviews. The New York Times Company was founded by Henry Jarvis Raymond and George Jones in New York City. The first edition of the newspaper The New York Times published on September 18 1851 stated: "We publish today the first issue of the New-York Daily Times and we intend to issue it every morning Sundays excepted for an indefinite number of years to come. The New York Times has received 137 Pulitzer Prizes as of 2023 the most of any publication among other accolades. The Times was one of the last newspapers to utilize color photography with the first color photograph appearing on The New York Times's front page in October 1997 giving the paper the nickname the "Gray Lady". The Times has expanded to several other publications including The New York Times Magazine The New York Times International Edition The New York Times Book Review. In addition the paper has produced several television series podcasts—including The Daily—and games. J. B. Lippincott Company hardcover
