A Short Introduction to Samuel Crowther
Samuel Crowther was a reporter, writer, editor, and a biographer to many of the country's greatest industrialists. He is probably one of the most unsung commentators on the industrial/business leadership of the 20th Century America. His work at System, The Magazine of Business gave him access to the top corporate and political leaders of his day.
The Miami Beach News wrote in 1930 that Crowther had been a newspaper correspondent for U.S. papers in the Balkan States; a correspondent for the New York Tribune and System: Magazine of Business in England and Germany; and a special correspondent for Collier's in Europe. He was a fellow of the Royal Economics society, and a member of the American Economics Association and the American Statistical Society. In 1930, he was a contributor to the Saturday Evening Post, World's Work and several other magazines.
Using his knowledge, he also wrote and published a multitude of books of his own. Here is as complete a list as I have seen of his works [from the 1945 version of "Time to Inquire"]. Samuel Crowther's works included books written by himself or in conjunction with some of the greatest industrialists of his day.
This includes the following:

I wish he would have written an autobiography similar to Ida Tarbell's All in the Day's Work. He would have had some wonderful tales to tell of the leaders of 20th Century Corporate America. Few journalists have matched his breadth of cooperative access to the industrialists of his day and their beliefs in their corporations' responsibilities to shareholders, employees, customers, and society in general.
