Jim Bellows quotes

I found this site that sells items with quotes from famous newspaper editor Jim Bellows. Jim was married to women’s page editor Maggie Savoy until her death in 1970.

I am hoping to write a conference paper about Jim soon – especially his approach to women in journalism. He had progressive views on women’s news and women in the newsroom. I have several of his letters that I found in archives at the University of Missouri (Penney-Missouri Award papers) and the University of Miami (Papers of Helen Muir).

I just ordered a water bottle with one of Jim’s quotes – I am hoping it inspires me to get started on that paper!
