Editor and publisher. He created or helped to create Doubleday’s Anchor Books, The New York Review of Books, the Library of America, and The Reader’s Catalog. The short-lived Reader’s Catalog (where’s my copy now?) gave rise to New York Review Books.
The New York Times has an obituary.

I knew Jason well when I was at Random House running puzzles. He would complain to me when he found that day's NYT crossword too hard.
Stan, I’m delighted to see you here.
To my mind, the tougher the better. : )
