Abstract
The Time Publishing and Business Records contain materials from the offices and staff of the business and publishing side of the magazine's operation. The majority of materials come from the office of the business manager; departments in charge of advertisements in the magazine; an educational materials subscription program; and public affairs.
Historical Note
Time is the first magazine created by Time Inc. with the first issue published on March 3, 1923. Time Inc. cofounders Henry R. Luce and Briton Hadden shared the masthead as Editors until Hadden's death in 1929. At this time, John S. Martin became the first Managing Editor of Time with Luce still over him as Editor. According to the Ownership Statements in the General Administrative Files, the earliest publisher of Time was Time Inc., not an individual.
According to Time Inc., Time pioneered the news magazine, at least the modern news magazine. Time's format of short articles summarizing news events and other items of interest and importance became the standard for later news magazines. Magazine sections included national and international affairs, business, education, science, medicine, law, religion, sports, books, and the arts.
Time published several foreign-language editions, the first launched in 1941 delivered by air service to Latin America; special issues including the popular Time Person of the Year (formerly Man of the Year); and Time for Kids, a children's magazine.
For the majority of Time Inc.'s existence, the company maintained a strict separation of editorial from the publishing and business side of each magazine, colloquially called the separation of "church" (editorial) and "state" (publishing). Publishing and Business Management includes the publisher, general manager, business manager, advertising sales, marketing services, letters, circulation, and public relations. Cofounder Henry Luce structured Time Inc. this way so that the business side could not (in theory) influence the editorial content of the publications. For example, the advertising sales people could not interfere with a magazine's decision to run an article on the dangers of cigarette smoking, even though it might mean losing millions of dollars in tobacco ads.

Biographical / Historical
The Office of the Business Manager was primarily responsible for the accounting, bookkeeping, and advertising pricing of each Time Inc. franchise. The Business Manager reported to the General Manager, when present, who reported to the Publisher.
On the earliest paperwork retained from 1929 in the Ownership Statements files, W. W. Commons is listed as Assistant General Manager. Ownership statements from 1932 to 1940 list him as the Business Manager. In 1941 William Hoeft takes over through 1947. Eric Hodgins is listed as General Manager in 1942. In 1948 James Thomason becomes the Business Manager. Assistant Business Manager Kelso Sutton took over as Business Manager around 1962 or 1963 and remained in this role through 1968 when he moved on to become Time General Manager. According to the Department Head Lists in the Time Inc. Reference Files, John P. Keller holds the post of Business Manager for a year before Lucy Werner takes over by early 1970. She remains Business Manager through 1972 or 1973 and is no longer in the role by 1974.
The title of Assistant Business Manager is not listed in the 1970 Department Head List. The listing returns by 1972 and includes John Howard through 1974. There are no lists from 1975 to 1977, but on the January 1978 list, Howard is the Time Business Manager. Ron Dronzek appears on the January 1978 list as an Assistant Business Manager, but by November of that year he has been promoted to Business Manager.

Subseries II.A. Business Manager James A. Thomason Files, 1939-1963, inclusive
Extent
Scope and Contents
Business manager James "Gus" Thomason's files were originally in roughly chronological runs of files with some of the same titles appearing in each year similar to Sutton's files. Records include correspondence and interoffice memoranda regarding staff salaries and bonuses; advertising rates and studies; operations for advertising sales, promotion, and distribution; and Life's service charges to Time.
Some records from Thomason for 1963 to 1964 are among folders of his successor Kelso Sutton. The similar labeling and arrangement of Thomason's and Sutton's files look like they were kept by the same third person, perhaps an administrative assistant.
Additional files from Thomason are in the General Administrative Files.
Arrangement
Organized into chronological groups of alphabetically arranged files based on the original arrangement.
Biographical / Historical
According to the Time Inc. staff newsletter FYI, William Hoeft had been the Time Business Manager for six years when he transferred to the Time Life International foreign desk as business manager in 1947.

Biographical / Historical
Time Promotion and Public Affairs seems to be the most robust public affairs department after Corporate Public Affairs. It handled several events that promoted Time Inc. as a company as well as a magazine, such as: coordinating travel and accommodations for Time Inc. staff and corporate guests when Time Inc. was a sponsor of the Olympics; organizing major annual conferences and symposiums like the Housing Industry Presidents' Conference; and overseeing projects and initiatives such as the Distinguished Speakers Program and the Time-Life Academy of Transition.
Up until 1967, there is no mention in the corporate structure of Time magazine of a public affairs department. Time did have a marketing department and an advertising promotion department since the earliest saved Department Heads List in the Time Inc. Reference Files.
While Robert Sweeney is listed in the 1966 Department Heads List as an assistant to the Time publisher, he signs off as a member of Time Public Affairs in his 1966 files. It is possible public affairs was within the Publisher's Office even earlier, but not recorded as part of the structure.
Beginning in 1967, Sweeney is officially listed as the Time public affairs director under Management along side of the publisher, general manager, and business manager. He continues to appear with this title through 1969. In 1969 the Advertising Promotion Department drops the word "Advertising" and becomes the Promotion Department.
In 1970, Sweeney moves over to the newly established Corporate Public Affairs, and no one is listed as part of Time Public Affairs. No magazine lists its own public affairs department, and it is possible public affairs services were centralized.
In 1972 public affairs reappears as Promotion/Public Affairs headed by director C. Lane Fortinberry who is also an assistant publisher, and Robert Ankerson as the director of public affairs. Former promotion staff are also part of this department.
By 1974, the department is called General Promotion, still headed by assistant publisher Fortinberry and listing some of the same staff. The department now oversees special events and an art director. By 1978 Sweeney takes over as the director of General Promotion and holds this title until 1982. Also by 1978 General Promotion has added a publicity director.
By August 1983 General Promotion and Public Affairs have split into separate offices. George Berger takes over as the director of General Promotion, and Sweeney is listed as the director of Public Affairs overseeing the public affairs manager, the publicity manager, and the special events manager. GP oversees the promotion manager, creative director, and art director.
By 1985 Berger is replaced by Katherine Erskine and the position of creative director disappears.
By the end of 1987, Promotion and Public Affairs are again one office with Daniel Brewster as Promotion & Public Affairs Director. The office oversees the business planning manager, art director, public affairs manager, promotion manager, and special events manager.

Subseries IV.A. Director Robert Sweeney Files, 1955-1969, 1981, inclusive
Extent
Scope and Contents
Robert Sweeney's files include some from when he was a corporate publicity assistant covering all magazines, when he was creative project director for Life, when he was listed as an assistant to Time publisher, but primarily are from his role as director of Time Public Affairs. Because one group of his files sent to the archives spans various roles plus his position in Public Affairs, all of his files are kept together in this record group.
Records include various publicity suggestions and the planning documents for various events and projects organized by or sponsored by Time Inc. magazines.
Arrangement
Organized into three subsubseries:
Subsubseries III.A.1. Director Administrative Files
Subsubseries III.A.2. Director Event Files
Subsubseries III.A.3. Corporate Publicity, Life Special Projects, and Time Public Affairs Files
Biographical / Historical
According to his files, Robert Sweeney worked on publicity for Fortune and Life from 1956 to 1962, then special projects for Life in 1963. According the the Department Head Lists for 1960 to 1961, he worked in Time Inc. Corporate as a publicity assistant. This role may have assisted all magazines. According to his obituary in the July 30, 1990 issue of the company newsletter FYI, Sweeney was appointed the creative projects director for Life in 1960.
By 1964, Sweeney signs off as the Time director of public relations. In 1966, the Department Head List records him as an assistant to the Time Publisher. Time has no public affairs position at this time, and the role may have been handled by the publisher's office until Sweeney is listed under Time Management as the Public Affairs Director in 1967. He holds this job until 1970 when he moves to Corporate Public Affairs.
According to VP of Corporate Public Affairs Donald Wilson's files, Sweeney returns to Time Public Affairs (now called General Promotion) in 1976 taking over as the director of General Promotion. His title changes to Worldwide Director of Public Affairs and Special Events in 1983. According to FYI, he retired in 1986. His obituary in FYI gives him credit for the creation of the newstour and proposing the bicentennial issue.

Although some folders are completely records from these other individuals, the majority are Sweeney and Kapner, and it seems the files belong to Sweeney as director.

Extent
Scope and Contents
Nancy Hall Megan's files document her work on organizing promotional exhibitions featuring art owned by Time Inc., particularly Time cover art, and the revival of the advertising competition "Power of Print."
Arrangement
Organized into three subsubseries:
Subsubseries III.F.1. Exhibition Files
Subsubseries III.F.2. Office Files
Subsubseries III.F.3. Project Files
Biographical / Historical
Early files name her as Nancy Hall until she marries in the late 1960s and becomes Nancy Megan. As early as 1969, Megan signs off as part of the Time public affairs department. In 1980, she signs as the manager of promotion operations. The Department Heads List includes her as the Promotion Manager from 1981 to 1984 and in 1985, she is called the Associate Promotion Director. By 1987, she is no longer listed as working at Time Inc.
Subsubseries IV.F.1. Exhibition Files, 1957-1983, inclusive
Extent
Scope and Contents
Exhibition Files includes materials on exhibitions created by Time. Most of the exhibitions are shown at venues other than the Time & Life Building. The earlier files are from business manager John Keller, his assistant Ann Bellows, public affairs director Robert Sweeney, or are unspecified. Later files are from Time promotion and special events staff Nancy Hall Megan. A note from Bellows to Megan in a Boris Artzybasheff folder indicates Megan took possession of the earlier non-Cover Art files.
The Time Cover Art Show files are primarily from Megan, quoted as "handling the cover show bookings for Time domestic," though files prior to 1967 are from Keller or Bellows. A note from Bellows to Megan indicates the tour files were kept by Megan although earlier files may have been created by Bellows.
The Time Cover Art Show had several tour iterations grouped by year spans based on existing divider tabs. Iternations included subsets of tours so that each venue did not received the same collection of cover art. The title of the exhibition could change based on venue and the tours are rarely referred to by official titles. Repeated titles used include Cover Artists and Contemporary Portraiture from the Covers of Time.
"Loans from" in the 1968-1970 tour include records on cover show items lent to other exhibitions or limited versions of the Time Cover Art Show which are not considered part of an official touring show. Cover art loan files from other years were included among the tour grouping at the time the loan occurred even if the loan was not related to the touring show.
Records in the Individual Shows sometimes state one is similar to another one or reference an exhibition in Chicago on the Ad Age, but it does not look like these are all part of the same organized tour.
Records include internal and external correspondence, catalogues, brochures, press releases, artwork inventories, photographs of exhibitions and related events, shipping invoices, and other related bills.

Extent
Scope and Contents

Arrangement
Organized into two subsubseries:
Subsubseries III.K.1. Administrative Files
Subsubseries III.K.2. Books and Binders
Biographical / Historical
According to a history written up by Time Inc. in 1990 when considering reviving the newstour program, newstours were created by Time magazine in 1963 to give a small group of thirty to fifty American leaders the opportunity to visit areas of the world in the news and meet with local leaders. The newstours were arranged by Time Inc., funded by the participants, and encouraged by the U.S. government, though they played no role in the tours.
Participants were invited because of their expressed interest in world affairs and because they were known to be citizens seeking opportunities to contribute to global stability and world peace. The primary purpose was inquiry rather than commercial or economic information. Participants were heads of their fields in industry, education, community affairs, and other professions; each paid their own expenses and relied on the Time publisher's office and public affairs department with assistance from local Time news bureaus to arrange the program and meetings with international leaders in politics and culture. Newstour participants notably met with: John F. Kennedy, Richard Nixon, Nikolai Khrushchev, Ferdinand Marcos, and Eisaku Sato.
Time also sponsored a 1973 visit for Japanese business executives to Detroit and a 1970 trip to Tehran for an economics conference. "Update on America" and "Report on America" were opportunities for foreign business executives to travel to the United States and meet with Time journalists, American business leaders, and government representatives. Newstours that traveled the United States were sometimes called "reverse newstours."
For a history and background of newstours, please refer to "Newstour 1990" files in Books and Binders.
More files from the 1995 newstours are in the Corporate Public Affairs record group. Corporate Public Affairs may have taken over the responsibilities for this event in later years.
Subsubseries IV.K.1. Administrative Files, 1963-1996, inclusive
Extent
Scope and Contents
The files planning and overseeing newstours for Time look like someone (either Time Public Affairs or the Time Inc. Archives) collected all the newstours files from everyone in Time Public Affairs and grouped them together by newstour. People represented include Public Affairs directors Robert Sweeney and Robert Ankerson, associate director Stan Kapner, special events managers Irina Bagration, Rita Robinson, and Nini Gussenhoven, and Public Affairs and Promotion staff Elizabeth Jones, Jim Roy, Anne Rhoades, Nancy Hall Megan, Patricia Donham Hodges. Early newstour files have records from Time publisher Bernie Auer, assistant publisher Lawrence Laybourne, Sweeney as an assistant to the publisher, business manager Kelso Sutton, assistant business manager John Keller, and Robinson as Laybourne's executive assistant.
Records include itineraries and agenda; lists of and biographies on participants; collected information on the tour locations; cable correspondence; correspondence with participants, staff on location, foreign governments, companies, and other representatives; correspondence with accommodations and transportation providers; interoffice correspondence; travel brochures and guides; information on memento gifts sent to participants; hotel information; invoices and bills; memoranda to file; programs and menus for events at visited locations; business cards; and branded stationary, stickers, and luggage tags. Some materials from earlier newstours are in later newstour files, probably for reference or research purposes during planning. Rebilling files includes bills sent by Time Inc. to participants for their share of the tour costs and frequently include notes of appreciation from the participants.
The General files contain materials related to several different newstours and a binder on the history of the newstours, and may have been collected at a later date for reference in planning a new newstour.
