Former New York Times publisher Arthur Ochs Sulzberger is dead at 86

Arthur O. Sulzberger, who was Times publisher from 1963 to 1992, died Saturday after a long illness.

Mr. Sulzberger’s tenure, as publisher of the newspaper and as chairman and chief executive of The New York Times Company, reached across 34 years, from the heyday of postwar America to the twilight of the 20th century, from the era of hot lead and Linotype machines to the birth of the digital world.
