David Brown, husband of Helen Gurley Brown, died over the weekend. HGB was best known as the editor of Cosmopolitan magazine. (Her husband wrote the headlines on the cover of the magazine. They were quite a pair.) She also had a column in the women’s pages based on her best-selling book Sex and the Single Girl.

Here is my review of a book about HGB which includes information about David Brown and his influence on her career. I hope to go through her papers at some point as part of a project that redefines feminism and the media.
