The Southwest Globe Times History
In 1945, Joseph and Lillian Bartash began the publication of the Southwest Globe Times community newspaper that focused on the good news happenings in Southwest Philadelphia. In the summer of 2005, Southwest CDC began a partnership with Mr. and Mrs. Bartash to continue publishing the newspaper. Both, Mr. and Mrs. Bartash died in September 2007, just three weeks apart. Ted Behr, Editor and Publisher for the Globe Times for the past 10 years, retired as of March 1, 2019, but is still reporting for the paper. He can be contacted at ted@southwestcdc.org
