Dalla morte di suo padre Richard Walter (circa 1755/6) fino al 1781 si impegnò in un business prospero come mercante di carbone. Occupò una posizione di primo piano nella fondazione a Londra di una Coal Exchange, luogo di commercio del carbone; ma, poco dopo il 1781, quando incominciò a ricoprire lui solo la figura di assicuratore e divenne un membro della Lloyds, sbagliò alcune speculazioni e fallì. (it) John Walter, född omkring 1739, död 16 november 1812 i Teddington utanför London, var en engelsk boktryckare, grundare av The Times. Walter var från mitten av 1750-talet till 1781 grosshandlare med kol och sysslade därjämte från 1770 med sjöförsäkringsaffärer. På dessa blev han 1782 fullständigt ruinerad och ägnade sig då åt boktryckeri, experimenterande med så kallade "logotyper" (hela ord som sats istället för enskilda bokstäver). Från sitt tryckeri började Walter, förutom böcker, nyåret 1785 utge tidningen "The London daily universal register", som från sitt 940:e nummer 1 januari 1788 fick namnet "The Times". Han trakasserades 1789 med flera tryckfrihetsåtal och ådömdes fängelsestraff, men frigavs i mars 1791. Ledningen av sina affärer överlämnade Walter 1795 åt sonen William Walter, s (sv)
