Noah Mozes (Hebrew: נח מוזס‎‎, 1912 – October 7, 1985) was an Israeli newspaper publisher, and the long-time managing editor of the Israeli newspaper Yedioth Aharonoth.

Life and career

He was the son of Yehuda Mozes, and was initially an agronomist. In 1955, he became the publisher and managing editor of the Israeli newspaper Yedioth Aharonoth, which in the late 1970s became Israel's biggest-selling newspaper.

He died on October 7, 1985, in Tel Aviv as a result of injuries incurred when he was hit by a city bus in a traffic accident, at the age of 73. His son, Arnon, known as "Noni", replaced him as publisher. His widow, Paula Mozes, died in 1997.

The Department of Communication and Journalism at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem was named after him in 1991, in a ceremony at which President Chaim Herzog spoke.
