Full Story
Sir Harold Evans has been voted by his colleagues as the all-time greatest British newspaper editor and has enjoyed a flourishing high-profile career in publishing in the United States.
His new memoir, "My Paper Chase", looks at his early days as a reporter, his award-winning journalism at the Sunday Times through the 70s, and his new found life in America.
He spoke to the BBC about the future of his industry - from the London Evening Standard's decision to become a free newspaper to the rapid rise of online journalism.
At the podium Harold Evans draws upon My Paper Chase, sharing his journey through the golden age of journalism and his decision to become an American citizen.
In a separate program, Sir Harold draws upon They Made America to bring the greatest innovators to life and discusses how America might once again renew the course set by them - from the steam engine to the search engine.
