He was a member of the family that owned The New York Times and he was that newspaper’s lead foreign correspondent during the 1940s and 1950s.
Born in New York City in 1912, his father was Cyrus Leo Sulzberger I and his brother was Arthur Hays Sulzberger, who was publisher of The New York Times from 1935 to 1961. Cyrus Leo Sulzberger II graduated magna cum laude from Harvard University in 1934. Cy, as he was commonly called, joined the family paper in 1939 and was soon covering stories oversea as Europe edged toward World War II. He served as a foreign affairs correspondent for 40 years and wrote two dozen books in his lifetime.
In 1942 Sulzberger married Marina Tatiana Ladas, who often accompanied him on his travels, and the couple led an active social life in Paris. They had two children: David Alexis Sulzberger and Marina Beatrice Sulzberger.
Because of the circles he traveled in, he sometimes carried messages from one foreign leader to another; for U.S. President John F. Kennedy he conveyed a note to Soviet premier Nikita Khrushchev in 1961. Of all the leaders he befriended, it is said that he was closest to President Charles de Gaulle of France.
Sulzberger won a special Pulitzer Prize in 1951.
He died in Paris in 1993, aged 80.показать меньше
