1 Ed Guthman

Professor and journalist Ed Guthman passed away on Sunday, according to LAObserved.

Guthman was an aide to Robert F. Kennedy, during his tenure as attorney general and when he served as senator from New York. He also served as editor of the Philadelphia Inquirer and national editor of the Los Angeles Times.

His tenure with RFK earned him a special place in American political history: a spot on Richard Nixon's "enemies list."
