Bosley Crowther
Bosley Crowther (July 13, 1905 – March 7, 1981) was an American journalist and author who was film critic for ''The New York Times'' for 27 years. His reviews and articles helped shape the careers of actors, directors and screenwriters, though his reviews, at times, were perceived as unnecessarily mean.〔 Crowther was an advocate of foreign-language films in the 1950s and 1960s, particularly those of Roberto Rossellini, Vittorio De Sica, Ingmar Bergman, and Federico Fellini.〔
==Life and career==
Crowther was born Francis Bosley Crowther, Jr. in Lutherville, Maryland, the son of Eliza (Leisenring) and Francis Bosley Crowther.〔http://www.nytimes.com/1981/03/08/obituaries/bosley-crowther-27-years-a-critic-of-films-for-times-is-dead-at-75.html〕 As a child, Crowther moved to Winston-Salem, North Carolina, where he published a neighborhood newspaper, ''The Evening Star''. His family moved to Washington, D.C., and Crowther graduated from Western High School in 1922. After two years of prep school in Orange, Virginia at Woodberry Forest School, he entered Princeton University, where he majored in history. For his writing performance, Crowther was offered a job as a cub reporter for ''The New York Times'' at a salary of $30 a week. He declined the offer, made to him by the publisher Arthur Hays Sulzberger, hoping to find employment on a small Southern newspaper. When the salary offered by those papers wasn't half of the ''Times'' offer, he went to New York and took the job. He was the first night cub reporter for the ''Times'', and in 1933 was asked by Brooks Atkinson to join the drama department. He spent five years covering the theater scene in New York, and even dabbled in writing for the theater.
While at the ''Times'' in those early years, Crowther met Florence Marks, a fellow employee; the couple wed on January 20, 1933.〔''Marjorie Dent Candee,'' "Current Biography Yearbook – 1957", ''H. W. Wilson Co. (1958),'' p 121.〕 They had three sons, Bosley Crowther III, a retired attorney, John Crowther, a writer and artist, and Jefferson, a banker.
