Remembering Paul Grimes
Travel Blog • Michael Yessis • 04.24.02 | 7:53 PM ET
Paul Grimes, the former travel editor of the New York Times and one of the founding editors of Condé Nast Traveler, died Tuesday in Abington, Pennsylvania.
Grimes was best known for his Practical Traveler column, a project that endeared him to readers and fellow travel writers. “He was a man of principle, of ethics, of balance,” writes Don Groff in a letter to Jim Romenesko’s MediaNews. “In an age of flashiness and sound bites, he stood for something more solid and enduring. His influence will live on in the many travel writers who try to emulate his fair-minded and thorough reporting with a consumerist bent.”
