She created puzzles for many publications after beginning her career in the early 1950s, and holds the record as the oldest contributor to ''The New York Times'' crossword puzzle. A 1965 ''Times'' puzzle she wrote is credited as the first rebus puzzle, fitting an exclamation point into a single square. She celebrated her 100th birthday in 2014, just a few weeks after the 100th anniversary of the crossword.〔 Her last puzzle was published in the ''Los Angeles Times'' on December 2, 2014.〔 ==History of puzzling== Having loved doing puzzles as a child, Gordon started creating her own puzzles for fun in the early 1950s, shortly after her first husband died.〔〔 Soon after, she started submitting them to Margaret Farrar, the first puzzle editor of ''The New York Times''. Despite 6 or 7 quick rejections (due to "Too many abbreviations", unfamiliar words, etc.), her first puzzle was accepted by the Times in 1952, a weekday puzzle for which she was paid $5 or $10. According to current puzzle editor Will Shortz, this was the first of over 150 puzzles from her the NYTimes would subsequently print. In 1955, she was assigned the 'Sunday stumper'. This was the first of 9 Sunday puzzles she would author for the Times.〔 At age 95, she became the oldest known crossword puzzle writer for the ''New York Times''. She subsequently broke her own record by being published in the ''Times'' at age 96, 97, 98 99,〔 and again at age 100.〔 Gordon published thousands of puzzles during her 60+ year career, and continued to write new puzzles daily. She called herself a "cruciverbalist,"〔 and credited her productivity to chronic insomnia.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bernice Gordon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
