William Jennings Bryan: A Concise But Complete Story of His Life and Services
by Harvey Ellsworth Newbranch
About the author
Harvey Ellsworth Newbranch was an American journalist, editor, and author born in 1875 and died in 1959. Reliable reference pages identify him with Omaha journalism, especially the Evening World-Herald, and note that he won the 1920 Pulitzer Prize for editorial writing.
For audiobook listeners, he is most likely to be recognized as the author of William Jennings Bryan: A Concise But Complete Story of His Life and Services. That book reflects the same interests that shaped his newspaper career: public life, political argument, and the power of clear, persuasive prose.
Although he does not seem to have a widely documented personal profile online, the available sources consistently portray him as a serious editorial voice in the American Midwest. His legacy today rests less on celebrity than on his role in early twentieth-century journalism and political writing.
