Thomas James "Tom" Maloney (born 23 October 1904 in Milwaukee to Irish-American parents) was an American advertising executive, poet, photographer, editor and publisher. He founded U.S. Camera, a photography magazine and annual published by U.S. Camera Publishing Corporation from 1938 to 1969, which at its peak reached a circulation of about 300,000. He edited the U.S. Camera annuals for decades, including the 1964 volumes. After the 1964 change of format there were two annuals: the hardcover U.S. Camera and the magazine-format U.S. Camera International Pictures, whose edition included an excerpt from Margaret Bourke-White's autobiography. He later started the magazine Camera 35. Gary Saretzky's chronology describes him as an energetic, restless traveler who often changed jobs, married four times and had nearly a dozen children. His death date could not be verified from the sources consulted.[1,2,3]
