Robert Harrison (1905 - 1978) was an American publisher who created the bi-monthly magazine Confidential in 1952. Confidential is seen as the progenitor of today's gossip magazines and modern celebrity journalism. Humphrey Bogart nicknamed Robert Harrison "The King of Leer". Robert Harrison was the son of Russian immigrants and grew up in the Bronx in New York. He started out as a copyboy on a New York tabloid and worked his way up to advertising space salesman. Later he started up smaller publications specializing in material seen at the time as sexually titillating and perverted. He was not beyond posing himself with the models (among them the famous Bettie Page), “playing everything from pith-helmeted white slaver to wife spanker.”
