Jim Bellows dies
I was so sad to learn yesterday that Jim Bellows had died. Here’s a link to one of several obits. Jim was a great editor. A great champion for the underdog. An advocate and mentor for women journalists. He was married to women’s page journalist Maggie Savoy until her death in 1970. He made a real difference. I interviewed him a few years ago about Maggie. Here’s a link to an obit that mentions Maggie.
