Ted Natt

Ted Natt (1941 – August 7, 1999) was a Pulitzer Prize–winning publisher.

Natt was publisher of the Longview Daily News in 1981 when the paper and its staff won the Pulitzer Prize for Local, General, or Spot Reporting.[1]

On August 7, 1999, Natt attended a memorial service for writer Willard R. Espy in Oysterville, Washington, and at night boarded his helicopter to fly home. Natt, having recently acquired the helicopter, never arrived at his planned destination of Kelso, Washington, and for several weeks his disappearance was a mystery. On September 11, 1999, however, a group of bow hunters discovered a crash site about six miles east of Knappa, Oregon. Natt's dead body was still strapped into his seat.[2]
