Samuel Irving Newhouse, Jr. was born on November 08, 1927 in United States. Longtime chairman of Conde Nast Publications Samuel "Si" Newhouse died on October 1 at age 89. He and his brother Donald had taken over their father Sam's multimillion-dollar publishing and broadcasting empire, Advanced Publications, when Sam died in 1979. Si served as Conde Nast chairman for 40 years before quietly retiring to the role of chairman emeritus in early 2015. During his tenure, he and his brother expanded the media empire they inherited into one of the country's largest privately owned companies, adding additional newspapers and magazines--among them such titles as The New Yorker and Wired--to go along with existing publications like Vogue. The two additionally acquired cable TV firm Bright House Networks, the online entertainment and social news site Reddit, and a sizable stake in Discovery Communications. They sold Bright House Networks to John Malone's Charter Communications in April 2016 for $11.4 billion in stock and cash.
