Edgar Allan Poe became the editor of Graham’s in February 1841 and soon was publishing the harsh critical reviews for which he became known. It was also where he first published “The Murders in the Rue Morgue”, now recognized as the first detective story. After Poe left the journal, his successor was Rufus Wilmot Griswold, a man who bitterly disliked Poe. Graham’s began rejecting Poe’s submissions and passed up the chance to publish “The Raven”. Graham left his magazine for a time in 1848 and it eventually ceased in 1858.
