Born in Kitchener, Ontario, the son of John Honderich Sr. and Rae Honderich, he was a high school drop-out[1] who worked as a cub reporter for the Kitchener-Waterloo Record before heading to Toronto. He was hired at the Star to replace reporters who went to serve in World War II, as Honderich was rejected by the RCAF due to poor eyesight. In 1955, he was appointed editor-in-chief of the Toronto Star and a director in 1956. In 1966, he was elected president and publisher of Toronto Star Limited. In 1976, he was appointed Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Torstar Corporation. In 1988, he retired as publisher and moved to Vancouver after his third marriage in 2000. He died at St. Paul's Hospital in Vancouver after having a stroke. His final request was for cremation. PersonalHonderich was married three times, with two sons and a daughter:
as well as six grandchildren. His brother, the British-Canadian philosopher Ted Honderich, worked for the newspaper in the 1950s. Honours
