Biographical History
Sidney Olson was a journalist, a war correspondent, and a senior editor at Time, Life, and Fortune magazines before joining Kenyon & Eckhardt, an advertising agency, in 1951. The firm was hired by Ford executives to market Ford Motor Company's fiftieth anniversary. While working on the project, Olson spent many hours with material in the Ford Motor Company Archives. After retirement, he conducted independent research in the Archives, focusing for five years on a project he called The American Road, A Picture History of the Life and Times of Henry Ford, 1863-1947. Olson's original intent was to write several volumes telling the story of Henry Ford "plainly" and utilizing primary source documents as much as possible. His manuscript was published (with some revision) after his death by Wayne State University Press under the title Young Henry Ford.
