T. S. Matthews Career

He joined the staff of The New Republic in 1925. There, literary critic Edmund Wilson encouraged him to write for the magazine. By 1928, he became an assistant editor and by 1929 an associate editor.

He joined Time in 1929 as book editor and moved up to assistant managing editor, executive editor, and managing editor. (In 1940, William Saroyan cites him as one of two managing editors at Time with Manfred Gottfried.) Finally, he succeeded Time co-founder Henry Luce as the magazine's editor, serving in that position from 1949 to 1953.

Matthews' relationship with Time soured over the 1952 presidential election. Luce favored Republican nominee Dwight D. Eisenhower but Matthews preferred his Democratic rival (and his Princeton classmate) Adlai Stevenson II. At Luce's instigation, Matthews moved to England to study a British version of Time. When the project did not carry through, he remained in Britain. There, he wrote numerous books and poetry, including an autobiography and a book on T. S. Eliot. He also reviewed books for the New York Times.
