"Joseph Pulitzer Jr. inherited the famous name and occupation of his grandfather, the journalist and publisher who established the Pulitzer Prize. Yet while he carried on the family tradition at the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, he was also building one of the greatest private art collections of the twentieth century. Classic Modern is the first biography to focus on this often-overlooked aspect of Pulitzer's life -- arguably his greatest passion." (dj).
