Dave Danforth (publisher)
Dave Danforth is an American publisher and newspaper owner. In the United States, he pioneered micro-daily newspapers beginning in the late 1970s, including Colorado's Aspen Daily News. Career In 1978, Danforth, a Yale University dropout who later returned to graduate from the Ivy League school, then working as a stringer for The Denver Post and for some national publications, began printing up a one-sheet "missive" and distributing 2,000 copies around Aspen.
