| Abstract | Newspaper editor and publisher Richard Love was born on June 24, 1938, in Hahira, Georgia. Love attended Kentucky State University, but left following his freshman year to join the military. In 1964, Love was recruited to work on vice president Hubert Humphrey's defense team. The next year, Love became a real estate appraiser for World Savings where he also worked as a housing consultant for the Urban League. Love worked in real estate for nearly a decade, primarily as a housing coordinator of land-based properties in Dade County, Florida. There, he wrote for the community newsletter. After moving to Westwood, California in 1985, he surveyed the community to gauge support for a black newspaper. After receiving positive responses, he established The Long Beach Times where he continued to work as writer, editor and publisher. Love was highly regarded as founder of the Long Beach Chapter of African American Commerce. |
