During World War II, John Hartzell Spence (February 15, 1908 to May 9, 2001) was an American writer and founding editor of Yank, the Army Weekly, a weekly magazine published by the US military during World War II.
He is credited with coining the word "pinup." He studied journalism at the University of Iowa in 1930, graduating in 1930, and he went on to work with the University of Iowa until World War II, when he became editor of Yank. He returned to his farm "Gaston Hall" near Orange, Virginia, after World War II.
In 1949, Ever After, his book about his farming exploits, was published.
He was one of the first stockholders in WJMA Radio [1] in Orange, Virginia, back in 1949. He wrote One Foot in Heaven, which was turned into a 1941 film.
He also wrote Get Thee Behind Me. Vain Shadow (1947), a romantic biography of Spanish conquistador Francisco de Orellana, was also published.
Spence wrote, "Vast swaths of the Amazon River remain today as they were four hundred years ago," Spence said in the introduction.
The river in this book is as I myself saw it in 1941, and it is likely that you will visit it now if you go there.
A scientific expedition into the upper basin with the most modern technology known to civilized man was forced to leave the jungle by a combination of fierce savages and crippling sicknesses.
Orellana, however, without medicines, charts, or scientific results, and without even knowing where he was headed four hundred years ago, an incredible achievement in the light of modern knowledge.
