Arthur Gelb

Arthur Gelb was the managing editor of the New York Times.

He began working the night shift as a copy boy. He ascended through the ranks holding several titles in many different departments. His biggest impacts were while working in the drama department. He enjoyed Eugene O'Neill's plays so much that he wrote O'Neill's biography1. He supported the creation of New York Shakespeare Festival by editorializing Joseph Papp's productions.
