Sir Gordon Newton (16 September 1907 – 31 August 1998) was a journalist and editor of the Financial Times for 22 years, from 1950 until 1972. He is generally considered to be one of the most successful British newspaper editors of the post-Second World War era. ==Early years== Leslie Gordon Newton (Leslie being his unused Christian name) was the second son of John Newton, a glass merchant, and his wife Edith Sara, ''née'' Goode. He attended Blundell's School and Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge, where he read economics. After graduating in 1929, he joined the family glass business, only to see it collapse the following year. At his father's suggestion, Newton then purchased a struggling mirror-making firm which he sold in 1933 for a profit, only to lose the money in a company that manufactured automobile parts when his business partner ran off with the firm's money.〔Nigel Lawson, "Newton, Sir (Leslie) Gordon", in ''The Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'', H.C.G.
