| Abstract | Journalist and activist Paul Delaney was born on January 31, 1933, in Montgomery, Alabama. He attended Ohio State University where he received his B.A. degree in journalism. Delaney's writing and leadership as a proponent of civil and humanitarian rights has led to his distinction and recognition as a journalist, humanitarian, scholar, and activist. Delaney's writing career began at the Atlanta Daily World. He then left Atlanta to work for the Daily News in Dayton, Ohio, and the Washington Star in Washington, D.C. Later, he joined the New York Times, serving in the Washington, D.C. bureau, where he spent twenty-three years as an editor and correspondent. In 1992, Delaney became the first African American chairman of the journalism department at the University of Alabama and was one of the founders of the National Association of Black Journalists. He directed Syracuse University's Initiative on Racial Mythology of the Gene Media Forum. |
