Sciences Health Arts College Journals Search All Criticism: Printable Version Download PDF Cite this Page Dutch-born American editor, essayist, and autobiographer. The influential editor in chief of the magazine Ladies' Home Journal between 1889 and 1919, Bok is remembered for his impact on American culture at the turn of the century and for his Pulitzer Prize-winning autobiography The Americanization of Edward Bok (1920). As editor of the Ladies' Home Journal, Bok instituted advice columns and a series of how-to articles, focusing his energies on improving the lives of Americans by moderately changing the attitudes of the middle-class. Among his reform and public-service efforts conducted in the pages of the Journal were his “Beautiful America” conservation campaign, an attack on patent-medicines, his advocacy of sex education for children, and plans for affordable housing. In his editorial columns and separately published works, Bok sought to project the virtues of common sense, hard work, and service, using himself as an example of how the dutiful application of these ideals would lead to success. Bok was born in Den Helder, the Netherlands, in 1863. His family emigrated to the United States when he was six years old, settling in Brooklyn, New York. Bok attended public school until the age of twelve, at which time he took a job as an office boy for the Western Union Telegraph Company in order to help support his impoverished parents. During this period he began to write brief biographies of notable Americans and to sell them for ten dollars each. In 1882 Bok found work with the publisher Henry Holt and Company as a stenographer. Two years later he joined the prominent New York publishing company Charles Scribner's Sons. His efforts with the church-focused
