has abstract	Harold Aylmer Littledale (1885 – August 11, 1957) was a Welsh-born American journalist. He emigrated to Canada to work as a cattle rancher but moved to the United States around 1906 to find work in journalism. After a period in Chicago, he moved east to work for the New York Evening Mail. In 1913 Littledale switched to the New York Evening Post where he was assigned to report on the New Jersey prison system. He visited all of the state's prisons and worked undercover as a prisoner at the New Jersey State Prison. Littledale reported "medieval" conditions with some prisoners chained to walls in "dungeons" and given bread and water twice a day. His 1917 report led to a state inquiry that recommended reform of the entire system. Littledale had enlisted in the British Army and served in the Tank Corps towards the end of the First World War. He was on the Western Front when he learned he had been awarded the 1918 Pulitzer Prize in Reporting for his prison work. Littledale returned to the New York Evening Post after the war. His reporting on neglect of wounded US Army veterans led to a Congressional investigation and creation of the Veterans Bureau. Littledale joined the New York Times in 1924 reporting on a number of aircraft stories before being promoted to suburban editor in 1928 and then to assistant to the managing editor. He was paralysed in a 1941 air crash and retired shortly afterwards. In 1952 Littledale wrote a book entitled Mastering Your Disability. (en)
