For the Australian poet, see John Blight.John Thomas Blight FSA (7 October 1835 – 23 January 1911) was a Cornish archaeological artist born near Redruth in Cornwall, England, UK.His father, Robert, a teacher, moved the family to Penzance and introduced his sons to the study of nature, antiquities and folk lore. John Blight was a natural draughtsman. By the age of 20, Blight had published a book on the antiquities of Penwith and a large collection of drawings.His expansion of this work, in two volumes, was at first encouraged by Rev. R. S. Hawker and then the cause of a great quarrel. John Blight's second patron, James Halliwell, was similarly unhelpful, never paying him for his vast labour in illustrating Halliwell's projected edition of William Shakespeare's Works.In the mid-1860s, Blight had a mental breakdown and was incarcerated for the remainder of his life in Bodmin Mental Asylum. Blight's recording of Cornish antiquities includes many that no longer exist. His descriptions and illustrations of them provide a most valuable source for archaeologists and local historians.

He was educated at Yale and New York University and worked both as an instructor and administrator at the latter while he was engaged in business as an accountant; he was also a member of Alpha Kappa Psi professional business fraternity.From 1927-1940, Madden was dean of New York University's business school, serving as a professor through the thirties until 1947, while rendering procurement training to the military in World War II. Dean Madden started an early form of inmate education using his faculty at Sing Sing. Dean Madden is quoted as saying "This idea is a mighty fine one, especially at this time. There are many men here who would not have been here five years ago. They committed no strange offenses. They merely carried on the business practices they had been used to. But these practices, with the advent of Depression, became criminal."[3]In 1929, Dean Madden became the third President of Alexander Hamilton Institute, a highly successful distance education business course started by his fellow New York University (NYU) instructor and predecessor as dean.[4]Dean Madden was also the major figure in developing the modern, professional procurement process. He stated in his text, "Budgetary Control" (1930) that it has "became apparent that, due to the amount of dollars at stake, purchases are more effectively handled by an individual who could concentrate on the business of procurement. In transforming requests into materials for their organizations, procurement professionals also have to perform market analysis and do product forecasting as well as understand the law of contracts."Dean Madden authored numerous texts of accounting, currency, mortgage banking and other business practices [5] ; accounting historian Julia Grant names him as one of the "fathers of modern accounting". [6]The educator and business leader was president of Theta Nu Epsilon from 1926-1932, and again (of the splintered TNE) from 1935 to 1946 and was active in the Andiron Club. The previous presidents of Theta Nu Epsilon were Joseph James Hartigan and Clarence J. Hand, students of Mr. Madden's at New York University (NYU).[7]The John T. Madden Memorial Award at NYU's Stern School of Business are named in his honor and in recognition of his achievements.

He represented Stanstead in the Canadian House of Commons from 1930 to 1935 and from 1945 to 1949 as a Conservative and then as a Progressive Conservative member. He sat for the Victoria division in the Senate of Canada from 1955 to 1956.He was born in Stanstead, Quebec, the son of Michael Felix Hackett and Florence Alberta Knight, and was educated at St. Charles Seminary and the law school at McGill University.

He was Batonnier of the Bar Association of Montreal and also President of the Canadian Bar Association, from 1947 to 1948. He was also president of the Stanstead County Historical Society and a lieutenant in the militia.In 1948, while serving as the President of the Canadian Bar Association and MP for Stanstead, Hackett spoke in the House of Commons against a proposal that the position of chief commissioner of the Board of Transport Commissioners be designated as open only to a judge of the Exchequer Court of Canada. Hackett was concerned that the proposal would blur the lines between the quasi-political and policy role of the Board, compared to the traditional neutrality of judges, and could undermine popular respect for the judiciary as neutral arbiters.Hackett died in office at the age of 72.

He taught at Harvard University from 1938 until his retirement as Lamont University Professor in 1984. While at Harvard, he was Chairman of the Economics Department from 1961–1966 and Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences from 1969-1973.Dunlop came to be recognized in the postwar United States as the most influential figure in the field of industrial relations.

Roosevelt to Bill Clinton. He mediated and arbitrated disputes in a wide variety of industries and over a range of issues in the formative post-World War II period. He also influenced the study of industrial and labor relations with his framework of an “industrial relations system” that arose from his scholarly as well as applied work. In looking back at his own legacy, Dunlop regarded himself fundamentally as a problem solver with an abiding interest in the workplace.Among the numerous books Dunlop wrote are Industrial Relations Systems (1958, 1993); Industrialism and Industrial Man (1960, joint author); Labor and the American Community (1970, with Derek C. Bok); Dispute Resolution, Negotiation and Consensus Building (1984); and The Management of Labor Unions (1990).

John Thomas North (30 January 1842 – 5 May 1896) was an English investor and businessman. North was born in Leeds, Yorkshire, the son of a coal merchant and a churchwarden. At the age of fifteen he was apprenticed to millwrights and engineers before working for several years as a mechanic. He moved to Chile where his first occupation was as a boiler riveter in Huasco. He later moved to the Peruvian town of Iquique where he worked as a waterworks operator, importer and ship owner. The War of the Pacific (1879–1883) provided North with an opportunity to purchase large numbers of bonds in the Peruvian nitrate industry. When Chile annexed Iquique and the surrounding province of Tarapacá the Chilean government transferred ownership of the nitrate fields to the bondholders. North was thus able to take a monopoly share of the lucrative Chilean nitrate industry for a very small initial investment, becoming known as "The King of Nitrates".North built upon his nitrates business by expanding into further monopolies in waterworks and freight railways, but also owned several iron and coal fields. North maintained his monopolies by employing lawyers to block competing entrepreneurs both in court and the Chilean National Congress. This was allowed by Chilean president Domingo Santa María, but Santa María's successor, José Manuel Balmaceda, became concerned that Tarapacá was starting to resemble a "state within a state" and resolved to break North's monopoly. Balmaceda had to force competition reforms through against opposition in congress, amongst a series of disputes which would eventually escalate into the 1891 Chilean Civil War between the president and the congress.North also had investments in the Anglo-Belgian India Rubber Company which operated a concession in the Congo Free State. This company was involved in the extraction and export of rubber from the state, another highly profitable business, but later became involved in abuses of human rights against those under its power. However North's finances were eventually depleted and when he died his business empire had collapsed.

His only runs of any note came with a score of 23 in his 1904 game against Sussex. His final game was the solitary match played for Somerset by the legendary fast bowler Tom Richardson; in the game against the 1905 Australians, Thomas was the last batsman to play an innings alongside Richardson and his bowling figures of 0/65 were identical to Richardson's, as the Australians amassed 609 for four wickets, with Warwick Armstrong making an unbeaten 303.

John Thomas Ball QC (24 July 1815 – 17 March 1898) was an Irish barrister, judge and politician in the Parliament of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, and Lord Chancellor of Ireland.He was born in Dundrum, Dublin, eldest son of Major Benjamin Ball, of the 40th Regiment of Foot, who had fought with distinction in the Peninsular War, and Elizabeth Feltus, daughter of Cuthbert Feltus of County Carlow. His formidable grandmother Penelope Paumier is said to have been the main influence in his childhood. He was educated at Trinity College, Dublin, which he entered when he was only 16, graduating LLD in 1844. He was an outstanding scholar and also enjoyed some reputation as a journalist and minor poet. He became a barrister in 1840, practising mainly in the field of probate and matrimonial law; Queen's Counsel, 1854; Vicar-General of the province of Armagh, 1862; Queen's Advocate in Ireland, 1865; Solicitor General for Ireland, 1868 and Attorney General for Ireland, 1868 and 1874–1875. He became a member of the Privy Council of Ireland in 1868.He was a Conservative Member of Parliament for Dublin University 1868–1875 and Vice-Chancellor of the University from 1880. His critics regarded him as an opportunist without any strong political convictions: on a celebrated occasion in the House of Commons, when he asked for the precise date of an event, Richard Dowse, the Government spokesman, replied that it was at roughly the time when Ball joined the Conservative party to advance his political career.He opposed the Irish Church Act 1869, (his speech was regarded as one of the finest made in the Commons in living memory), but assisted in framing the future constitution of the disestablished Church of Ireland, of which he was a devout member all his life. He opposed Gladstone's first Irish Land Bill of 1870 and the Irish University Bill of 1873.On the return of the Conservative Party to power in 1874, he served again as Attorney General for a time. Although his talents undoubtedly entitled him to a seat on the Bench, Disraeli was reluctant to lose a Law Officer of whom he had the highest opinion. When a suitable replacement as Attorney General was found Ball became Lord Chancellor of Ireland, 1875–1880. As a judge his reputation was excellent: his judgments, especially in probate cases, were both learned and well written. When the Conservatives went out of office in 1880, Ball's public career came to an end, and at 65 his health was starting to fail. When the Conservatives returned to power in 1885 Ball was too infirm to accept any office in the new Government. After 1890 he rarely left home.He wrote two books, one on the Church of Ireland, the other on the Irish legislative system. Like his judgements, both books were praised both for their learning and strict impartiality: even Gladstone praised the book on the Irish Church highlyHe married Catherine Elrington, daughter of Rev Charles Elrington, in 1852; she died in 1887. They had three sons, Charles, Thomas, and the best-known of their children, F Elrington Ball, who was an author and legal historian, and is still remembered for The Judges in Ireland 1221-1921 and for his 6 volume History of the Parishes of Dublin.

In addition to touring as a concert violinist, he also worked with a string ensemble and various minstrel companies, including the Hyers Sisters and the Georgia Minstrels.Douglass also managed a teaching studio, where he met David Mannes, later of the New York Symphony Orchestra, who founded a music school for African American students in New York.

John Thomas Haig, (December 15, 1877 – October 23, 1962) was a politician in Manitoba, Canada.

In 1907, he married Josephine M. Dickie.

John Thomas Scharf (May 1, 1843 – February 28, 1898) was a United States historian, author, journalist, antiquarian, politician, lawyer and Confederate States of America soldier and sailor. He is best known for his published historical works. Modern historians and researchers cite his comprehensive histories as primary source materials.Scharf used a formulaic and detailed approach to preparing his historical works. He contacted everyone who could provide information about his subject and used detail questionnaires to capture responses to his inquiries. The J. Thomas Scharf Collection, 1730s-1892, held by the Maryland Historical Society, shows off his massive collection of original source materials.Scharf was one of the first American historians to consistently use newspapers as a primary source. Rather than trying to analyze the source material, he often quoted at length from newspapers, magazines, pamphlets, and state and city documents. His books are written in the flowery style of his day, and several of his works, although long, are still considered among the best primary sources available. When writing about the American Civil War, the central event of his generation, he could not remain objective, and clearly articulated his strong pro-South perspective and prejudice about the war he fought. Still, his History of the Confederate States Navy remains a particularly valuable contribution to the literature of the American Civil War.At the outbreak of the war, Scharf enlisted with the 1st Maryland Artillery. He fought in the Confederate States Army and Navy. Returning from the war, Scharf helped reorganize the Maryland state militia.
