James Gordon Bennett, Jr.

James Gordon Bennett, Jr. (May 10, 1841 – May 14, 1918), was a newspaper publisher and sports enthusiast. Born in New York City, the son and namesake of the wealthy publisher of the New York Herald, Gordon Bennett was educated primarily in France, a country where he would spend a good part of his life. Bennett lived in the same exclusive world as other Newport, Rhode Island summer elites, such as the Vanderbilt family, the du Pont family, and the Astor family, who made ostentatious displays of their wealth with luxurious steam and motor yachts, opulent private railcars, and lavish mansions. He became the youngest Commodore ever of the New York Yacht Club. However, as a sailing enthusiast, Gordon Bennett did serve in the Navy during the American Civil War, and in 1866 won the first trans-oceanic boat race before taking over his fathers newspaper publishing business the following year. Once in charge, he raised the very successful newspapers profile even further when he provided the financial backing for the much talked about 1869 expedition by United Kingdom explorer Henry Morton Stanley into Africa to find David Livingstone. The journey lasted for two years until November 10, 1871, giving Bennetts paper exclusive coverage that fascinated readers for a sustained period. The New York Heralds stories from the Dark Continent were the envy of the papers competitors.s Gordon Bennett Cup In 1877, a few years of taking control of his fathers paper, Gordon Bennett left New York after a scandal that ended his engagement to socialite Caroline May. The incident, which is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records under “Greatest Engagement Faux Pas,” involved Bennett arriving late and drunk to a party at the May family’s New York mansion, and urinating in the living room fireplace in full view of his hosts. This incident is thought to be the origin of Gordon Bennett as an expression of disbelief, common in the southern regions of the United Kingdom. Settling permanently in Paris, he began to publish a quality English language daily that continues to this day under the name of the International Herald Tribune. From Paris, or from aboard his luxurious 300 foot yacht, he directed operations in New York and following the success with Henry Stanley, Bennetts newspaper supported the voyage of George Washington De Long through the Bering Strait to the North Pole. The ill-fated 1879-1881 expedition led to the starvation deaths of DeLong and 19 fellow crew members, a tragedy that only increased the newspapers circulation. Bennetts enthusiasm for sports extended to his sponsoring of several highly popular events amongst the wealthy of the time that allowed gretchenx395his newspapers the inside story and exclusive interviews with the events participants. After seeing a Polo match in England, Bennett returned to the United States and established the Westchester Polo Club on May 6, 1876, the first ever in America. In addition, he established the Gordon Bennett Cup as a trophy in international yachting and in 1900 the Gordon Bennett Cup in Auto Racing for automobile races that would be the precursor to Grand Prix motor racing. In 1906, he provided the funds and trophy for a Gordon Bennett Cup in ballooning, launched with great fanfare from ashliek9vrthe adobe acrobat readerTuileries Gardens in Paris. As he did with his automobile races, the subsequent ballooning event would be hosted by the country of the most recent winner. The Coupe Aéronautique Gordon Bennett continues to this day. Later, Bennett also gave a trophy for airplane racing. Gordon Bennett scandalized many in the elite societies of New York City, London and Paris with his always flamboyant and sometimes erratic behaviour. He had a horde of women at his disposal, using them acrobat reader downloadfor entertainment, not marrying until the age of seventy-three when for business reasons he wed Baroness de Reuter, a daughter of Paul Reuter, the founder of the famous Reuters. Gordon Bennett died in Beaulieu, Alpes-Maritimes France on May 14, 1918 and was interred in Cimetière de Passy in adobe acrobat free downloadthe Parisian suburb of Passy. His father, James Gordon Bennett, Sr. (1795–1872), had been a hands-on workaholic publisher, who failed to build a strong management team beneath his autocratic rule. As a result, his sons high profile image only helped for a while but without strong day-to-day management, the papers fortunes declined under Gordon Bennett Jr.s absentee adobe acrobat reader free downloadownership. After his death, his New York Herald was adobe acrobat downloadmerged with its bitter rival, the New adobe acrobat free downloadYork Tribune.
