Lee Taylor, Jr. (June 8, 1913 July 2, 2009) was an American publisher and chairman of the Philadelphia Bulletin in the years leading up to the paper''s demise. He was jailed in 1963 for his refusal to testify before a grand jury about his paper''s reporting, and was released after the Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruled that his actions were protected under the state''s shield law. Taylor was born in Norfolk, Virginia and grew up in Baltimore, Maryland. He attended Princeton University, graduating in 1935. Taylor started work at the Philadelphia Bulletin after graduating from college where his uncle Robert McLean was publisher, and owned the paper together with his brothers and sisters and worked at the paper for nearly 40 years, other than during World War II, when he served in the United States Navy. As the paper''s president in 1963, he and other staff members at the Bulletin were ordered to testify before a grand jury investigating municipal corruption and demanded details of the sources for the paper''s stories.
