{"value"=>"<p>Shuman began his career as managing editor; and was about the thirtieth of Ross's proposed \"Jesuses,\" or administrative point men for the editorial department. Like previous victims, his messianic abilities fell short of Ross's ideal, but Shuman went on to serve an important role as liaison between the editorial and business sides of the magazine. In addition to compiling operational statistics and business expenses, Shuman was asked to handle legal problems such as libel threats. This subseries also contains Katharine White's critical commentary of each issue of the magazine published during this period (Box 964, f.19-20).</p>"}
