Home What's New Press Room Contact EDWARD BOK Edward William Bok (1863-1930), American editor and Pulitzer Prize-winning author, was born in Den Helder, Netherlands, on October 9, 1863. He came to the United States at the age of six. Educated in the Brooklyn Public Schools, he became an office boy with the Western Union Telegraph Company in 1876. Continuing his education at a night school, he began working for Henry Holt and Company, publishers, in 1882. Two years later he became associated with Charles Scribner's Sons, publishers, eventually becoming advertising manager. He was the editor of The Brooklyn Magazine from 1884 to 1887. In 1886, he founded The Bok Syndicate Press, which led to the offer of the editorship of The Ladies' Home Journal in 1889. Under his management, The Ladies' Home Journal became one of the most successful and influential publications in America and the first magazine in the world to have 1 million subscribers. Bok was a champion of social causes, a pioneer in the field of public sex education, prenatal education and childcare, and an environmental activist in public health and the saving of Niagara Falls. After 30 years as editor he retired in 1919.

Entries Publication Data Advisory Board Contributors ... World Civilizations The Reader's Companion to American History BOK, EDWARD , editor of the Ladies' Home Journal. In 1870, when Edward was six years old, the Bok family left a comfortable life in the Netherlands to immigrate to the United States. When his family suffered financial reverses, Edward quit school after six years to go to work. By his early teens, however, he was visiting and corresponding with famous literary, religious, and political figures, including presidents of the United States. And before the age of twenty, this born entrepreneur was publishing a magazine and syndicating articles nationally. In 1889, Bok accepted an offer from Cyrus H. K. Curtis to become editor of the Ladies' Home Journal; the two built the Journal into the world's most widely circulated magazine. During Bok's reign, from 1889 to 1919, the Journal led the industry, making many innovations, including high-quality illustrations and printing techniques, a different cover for each number, and extensive marketing research. In addition, the Journal 's policy of reporting accurate circulation figures served as the basis for new federal regulations in this area.
