Biographical History
Clay Blair, Jr. (1925-1998) was born in Lexington, Virginia. He volunteered for submarine service in World War II. His career in journalism began when he started at Time-Life Corporation in 1949. During this time he also wrote well-received non-fiction books on Admiral Rickover, the atomic submarine Nautilus, and the hydrogen bomb. In 1957 he joined the Curtis Publishing Company as a correspondent for The Saturday Evening Post. He advanced to associate director and was editor-in-chief of all the Curtis magazines. He left the Curtis Publishing Company in 1964 after a management conflict. In 1965 Mr. Blair became a free lance journalist and military historian. Among his many books on military history are A General's Life (Omar N. Bradley), Return from the River Kwai, Ridgway's Paratroopers, Silent Victory, Macarthur, The Forgotten War (Korea), Hitler's U-Boat War, and The Search for JFK. In 1982 he was the Defense and National Security Consultant for The Washington Times. Blair and his wife were working on a book about the history of the Code and Signal Section within the Office of Naval Communications at the time of his death.
