The compilers were brothers who spelled their last names differently. Leonard Safir was a veteran radio and television producer who was a public relations executive. In 1952, he became the first associate producer of the early morning "Today" program at NBC-TV, where he originated many of television's first live remote telecasts. Mr. Safir had become known as a quotations anthologist, collaborating on four books with Mr. Safire. The first book, titled "Good Advice, " was published by Times Books in 1982. Simon & Schuster published "Words of Wisdom--More Good Advice" in 1989, "Leadership" in 1990 and "Good Advice for Writers" in November, 1992. William Lewis Safir (December 17, 1929-September 27, 2009) better known as William Safire, was an American author, columnist, journalist, and presidential speechwriter. He was a long-time syndicated political columnist for The New York Times and the author of "On Language" in The New York Times Magazine, a column on popular etymology, new or unusual usages, and other language-related topics from its inception. He joined The New York Times as a political columnist in 1973. In 1978, Safire won the Pulitzer Prize for Commentary on Bert Lance's alleged budgetary irregularities. In addition to his political columns, Safire wrote a column, "On Language", in the weekly The New York Times Magazine from 1979 until the month of his death. Many of the columns were collected in books. According to the linguist Geoffrey Pullum, over the years Safire became less of a "grammar-nitpicker, " and Benjamin Zimmer cited Safire's willingness to learn from descriptive linguists. Another book on language was The New Language of Politics (1968), which developed into what Zimmer called Safire's "magnum opus, " Safire's Political Dictionary.
