Richard Steuart also contributed indirectly to the formation of Time Magazine.
While he was contributing editor of the Baltimore News Post Mr. Steuart employed a young journalist by the name of Briton Hadden.
Mr. Hadden had the idea to start news magazine of his own so Mr. Steuart granted him a leave of absence from the Baltimore News-Post with the promise that if the magazine should not work out that he could return to Baltimore and have his position back.
Upon his death, Richard D. Steuart was eulogized by both Maryland's Governor Theodore McKeldin and Baltimore City's Mayor Thomas D’Alessandro.
