Adolph Simon Ochs (1858-1935)

Publisher & Owner of 'The New York Times' & 'Chattanooga Times Free Press' etc.

He was the foremost newspaper publisher of the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries. He resurrected The New York Times after purchasing it in 1896, and brought his own rigorous editorial standards to the the field of American journalism. Through his only child, Iphigene (Ochs) Sulzberger, his descendants continue to publish The New York Times through to the present day (2025).
