Bernice Gordon (January 11, 1914 – January 29, 2015[1]) was an American constructor of crosswords.[2] She created puzzles for many publications after beginning her career in the early 1950s, and holds the record as the oldest contributor to The New York Times crossword puzzle.[3][4] A 1965 Times puzzle she wrote is credited as the first rebus puzzle, fitting an exclamation point into a single square.[5] She celebrated her 100th birthday in 2014, just a few weeks after the 100th anniversary of the crossword.[6] Her last puzzle was published in the Los Angeles Times on December 2, 2014.[1]
