Talcott Williams (July 20, 1849 – January 24, 1928) was an American journalist, author and educator.[1] Williams worked as a journalist and editor for nearly four decades, including thirty years with The Philadelphia Press. Williams authored numerous books and articles, and in 1902, Williams was included in the book, "Philadelphia and Notable Philadelphians."[2]

In 1912, Williams became the first director of the newly founded Columbia School of Journalism at Columbia University, built and endowed by Joseph Pulitzer. In 1917, he led the first journalism jury in awarding the first Pulitzer Prizes during World War I, when the School of Journalism had suspended classes and was established as a Washington news service.[3]

Williams was a member of the American Philosophical Society and served with the National Security League, advocating for the promotion of "useful knowledge," by serving on the Committee for Organized Education.[4] He served as president of the American Conference of Teachers of Journalism, and was the recipient of numerous honorary doctorates from institutions including the University of Pennsylvania and Brown College.[1][5][6]
