During the 1890s, publications were inserted into Joseph Pulitzer‘s
New York World and William Randolph Hearst‘s New York Journal.

The infamous Western outlaw known as “Billy the Kid” was
mostly likely born in a poor Irish neighborhood on New York
City’s East Side on November 23, 1859. (Much about his early
life is unknown or unverified.) Before he was shot dead at age
21, Billy reputedly killed at least nine people in the American
West.

Billy the Kid called himself William H. Bonney, but his original
name was probably Henry McCarty. Bonney was his mother
Catherine’s maiden name, and William was the first name of
his mother’s longtime companion—William Antrin—who acted
as Billy’s father after his biological father disappeared.

On November 23, 1936, the first issue of the pictorial magazine
Life was published, featuring a cover photo of the Fort Peck
Dam’s spillway by Margaret Bourke-White.

Life actually had its start earlier in the 20th century as a different
kind of magazine: a weekly humor publication, not unlike today’s
The New Yorker in its use of tart cartoons, humorous pieces and
cultural reporting.

When the original Life folded during the Great Depression, the
influential American publisher Henry Luce bought the name and
re-launched the magazine as a picture-based periodical on this
day in 1936.
