As associate editor at Collier’s Weekly from 1933-1945, he averaged 20 articles per year. He also published 25 books, including The Wounded Don’t Cry (1941), London Diary (1941), Convoy (1942), and Dress Rehearsal (1943).
After World War II, Reynolds was best known for his libel suit against right-wing Hearst columnist Westbrook Pegler. Reynolds, represented by noted attorney Louis Nizer, won $175,001 (approximately $1.5 million in 2014 dollars), at the time the largest libel judgment ever. The trial was later made into a Broadway play, A Case of Libel, which was twice adapted as TV movies.
Reynolds died in San Francisco, California on March 17, 1965, aged 62.view less
