Many years ago, Andrew and I worked together at WNYC. He was a great colleague: fun to be with, smart and a strategic thinker ( Andrew was instrumental in obtaining legislation providing State funding for the radio stations.) Andrew´s memory will be cherished by those who knew him in that period. His loved ones, especially Ruth, have my sincere sympathy.
