Eugene Meyer
(Even before Eugene Meyer bought a fading newspaper called...)
Even before Eugene Meyer bought a fading newspaper called the Washington Post ( in 1933) and built it into the institution it is today he had carved out enough nationally influential careers for several lifetimes. In this major life of a protean figure, the Pulitzer Prizewinning biographer Merlo Pusey tells Meyer's story, from the hectic Wall street days before World War I when he won and lost- and won fortunes in the development of the copper industry, through his term as a wartime policymaker in Washington, working closely with Bernard Baruch, to the postwar period when he organized the giant Allied Chemical Company and became (for a while simultaneously) governor of the Federal Reserve Board and chairman of the Reconstruction Finance Corporation during the presidency of Herbert HOover, through his emergence as a great newspaper publisher

Edit ProfileCareer
Born and raised on a farm near Woodruff, Utah, Pusey was a Latter-day Saint. He later became a reporter and assistant city editor at The Deseret News in Salt Lake City. Pusey worked for The Washington Post from 1928 to 1971, becoming associate editor in 1946, continuing to contribute occasional pieces until about two years before his death.
In 1939-1942 he was an instructor in journalism at George Washington University.
His interest in Roosevelt"s "court packing plan" led directly to his biography of Hughes, who was chief justice at the time, and who gave him a number of interviews and full access to his private papers. Other books include "" (1945), "Eisenhower the President" (1956), "The United States of America Astride the World" (1971), and Eugene Meyer (1974), a biography of the financier and public official who bought The Washington Post at a bankruptcy sale in June 1933.
In later years Pusey lived on a farm in Dickerson, Maryland. After publishing Ripples of Intuition, a book of poetry in 1984, he died of cancer in 1985.
