Jim Bishop

James Alonzo "Jim" Bishop (21 November 1907 – 26 July 1987) was an American journalist and author. Quotes What makes a good writer of history is a guy who is suspicious. Suspicion marks the real difference between the man who wants to write honest history and the one who'd rather write a good story. As quoted by Lewis Nichols in "Talk With Jim Bishop", The New York Times (6 February 1955). The future is an opaque mirror. Anyone who tries to look into it sees nothing but the dim outlines of an old and worried face. in  New York Journal-American, March 14, 1959 External links 0084082 Jim Bishop Jim Bishop Chronology by Michael Spencer Jim Bishop Collection at St. Bonaventure University Profile at Find a Grave Category:Journalists from New Jersey Category:1907 births Category:1987 deaths Category:Biographers from the United States
