20th-century Australian journalist and historian
This article is about the Australian journalist and historian. For other people with similar names, see Charlie Bean.
Charles Edwin Woodrow Bean (18 November – 30 August ), usually identified as C.
E. W. Bean, was a historian and one of Australia's official war correspondents. He was editor and principal author of the volume Official History of Australia in the War of –, and a primary advocate for establishing the Australian War Memorial (AWM).
According to the Online International Encyclopedia of the First World War, no other Australian has been more influential in shaping the way the First World War is remembered in Australia.[1][2]
When Bean died on 30 August , aged 88, an obituary written by Guy Harriott, associate editor of The Sydney Morning Herald and a former war correspondent, described Bean as being "one of Australia's most distinguished men of letters".[3]
