Draft:C. Blythe Andrews Jr.
Appearance
Perhaps best merged to the newspaper entry. Expanded coverage at the library might also be useful.
Cyril Blythe Andrews (? - January 12, 2010) was a newspaper reporter, city editor, and publisher as well as a community advocate and businessman.[1] A bust of him is along the Tampa Riverwalk.[2]
He was born in Jacksonville, the son of C. Blythe Andrews (1901 - 1977)
He was involved with his family's newspaper the Florida Sentinel Bulletin.
C. Blythe Andrews Jr. library in Tampa's College Hill neighborhood is named for him. A video with clips of the renaming ceremony posted by Hillsborough County is on YouTube.[3] Cyril Blythe Andrews III is also involved in the paper.
