Charles Christian Wertenbaker.〔 〕 (1901–1955) was an American journalist Time (magazine) and author. ==Career== Wertenbaker was born circa 1901, the son of American football coach William C. "Bill" Wertenbaker. Wertenbaker worked for Time publications (Fortune, Life, and Time) from 1931 to 1948.〔 By 1942, he was already the magazine's foreign editor. Whittaker Chambers, who served as foreign editor later in World War II, described him and other colleagues in his 1952 memoir: I had scarcely edited it so long when most of Time's European correspondents joined in a round-robin protesting my editorial views and demanding my removal . They were seconded by a clap of thunder out of Asia, from the Time bureau in Chungking. Let me list the signers of the round-robin, or those among Time's foreign correspondents who supported it, and continued to feed out news written from the viewpoint that the Soviet Union is a benevolent democracy of unaggressive intent, or that the Chinese Communists are "agrarian liberals," for I think that they are enlightening. Foremost among them were: John Hersey, John Scott (son of my old teacher of the law of social revolution, Scott Nearing), Charles C . Wertenbaker, the late Richard Lauterbach, Theodore White.〔 Towards the end of the war, Wertenbaker reported from Paris, where he knew people like Ernest Hemingway and Irwin Shaw.〔 〕 He was one of many journalist who hung out at the Bar in the Hotel Scribe, as painted by colleague Floyd MacMillan Davis in Paris in 1945.〔 〕 Wertenbaker described the scene in an article for ''Life (magazine)''.〔 〕 After the war, he remained in France, where he continued as both journalist and author.〔 〕〔 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「Charles Wertenbaker」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
