2025 Whitehall Lecture Series – “The New York Newspaper Publishers of the Gilded Age: Adolph Ochs”

The Annual Whitehall Lecture Series presents The New York Newspaper Publishers of the Gilded Age, at 3:00 p.m. each Sunday from February 2nd to March 2nd. Experts and authors will speak about the publishers that were responsible for producing the newspapers of New York during the Gilded Age.

The Ochs-Sulzberger family have chaired The New York Times for more than a century. Alex S. Jones will explore how Adolph Ochs’ complicated Jewish legacy, fears, and anxieties were reflected in the paper’s style.

When possible, each lecture will be followed by a book signing with the author.
