W. Scott Tyler

Scott was my first eity editor on the Courier in 1956. He was a solid newsman who did not put up with any foolshness as concerned the publishing the daily paper. He had a keen eye for photography, but was still of the old school leaning toward the 4x5 Speed Graphic rather than the smaller format cameras. He utterly detested the 35mm. We never could convince him. He was one of the best guys to work under as I continued my photo-journalism career. He will be missed.

Even though I have not been in touch for years, I shall miss a darn good newspaper man. I was a former photographer for the Courier.
