Rupert Hart-Davis

Rupert Hart-Davis

English publisher, editor, writer and man of letters. In 1946 he founded Rupert Hart-Davis Ltd. By the middle of the 1950s, Rupert Hart-Davis Ltd could no longer sustain an independent existence and in 1956 it was absorbed into the Heinemann group. Heinemann sold the imprint to the American firm Harcourt Brace in 1961, who sold it to the Granada Group in 1963, when Hart-Davis retired from publishing, though remaining as non-executive chairman until 1968.
