Don Carlos Seitz (1862-1935) was an American newspaper manager and writer. Born at Portage, Ohio, he graduated from the Liberal Institute at Norway, Maine in 1880. He served as Albany correspondent (1887-1889) and as city editor of the Brooklyn Eagle (1889-1991) before becoming assistant publisher of the New York Recorder (1892-1893) and managing editor of the Brooklyn World (1893-1994). Thereafter he acted as advertising manager with the New York World from 1895-1897 and as paper’s business manager from 1898 onwards. He also published a number of books, including Discoveries in Everyday Europe (1907); Writings by and about James McNeill Whistler (1910); Elba and Elsewhere (1910); Surface Japan (1911); Letters from Francis Parkman to E. G. Squier (1911); The Buccaneers (1912); Whistler Stories (1913); Braxton Bragg, General of the Confederacy (1924); Joseph Pulitzer; His Life and Letters (1924); Under the Black Flag: Exploits of the Most Notorious Pirates (1925); and The Great Island: Some observations in and about the Crown Colony of Newfoundland (1926). Seitz died in Brooklyn, New York in 1935 and is buried in Falmouth, Cumberland County, Maine.
