Harrison McJohnston (July 26, 1884 – June 11, 1952)[1][2] was an American organizational theorist and professor of business communication and advertising.
McJohnston had started his career as copywriter, sales correspondent, editor at two magazines, and had taught economics at Ohio State University.[3] In 1913 he started his further academic career at the University of Illinois.
The Alexander Hamilton Institute, a well-known correspondence course provider of its day,[4] considered his works as a part of their main instruction for both accounting[5] and advertising.[6]
