William Harrison Ukers (1873–1945) was the founding editor of the Tea & Coffee Trade Journal.
In 1901, 27-year-old Ukers worked as an editor for The Spice Mill, the in-house magazine of the Jabez Burns coffee company. Taking note of a growing trend, he suggested to his boss that the magazine expand to become a trade journal. His boss dismissed the idea, Ukers summarily quit, and the rest is coffee and tea history—literally.
