Bartholomew, Harry Guy (1885–1962)| English journalist. Bartholomew spent his life working on the popular British daily newspaper, the Daily Mirror. As its editor, he turned it into a mass-circulation tabloid paper with a readership of almost 4.5 million, then the largest in the world. He was chairman of both the Daily Mirror and the Sunday Pictorial companies, 1944–51. |
| Bartholomew joined the Daily Mirror in 1904, shortly after the paper's foundation. An outstanding popular journalist, he rose quickly from the engraving department to become a director of the paper at age 28. In 1934 he became its editor. At his instigation, the Mirror company acquired the periodical Reveille, which subsequently gained a circulation of 3,000,000. |
