Joseph Medill Patterson Albright (born circa 1935) is the former husband of Madeleine Albright, former United States Secretary of State. He is the scion of a media empire, the grandson and namesake of Joseph Medill Patterson, founder of the New York Daily News who had rivaled William Randolph Hearst in the cutthroat publishing industry of the 1930s. His great-great grandfather, Joseph Medill, owned the Chicago Tribune and had been elected mayor of Chicago. His aunt, Alicia Patterson, founded Newsday.
The Albrights met when the then Madeleine Korbel spent a summer working at the Denver Post alongside the budding journalist Albright and married soon after Madeleine's graduation from Wellesley College. They had three daughters, Katie and twins Anne and Alice. The couple divorced in 1982.
Joseph Albright attended Williams College.
