HSUEH-TUNG CHEN

wonderful memories of Chen,Diana ,Doris Rudko and the Mulberrystreet Theatre!

I first met Mr. Chen in Philadelphia in 2002, and again in Birmingham when a friend of ours had the Company as guest artists to promote an Asian Cultural Center there. I remember his talent self effacing, knee slapping humor and keeping us in stitches all the time. Laughter is good for health, and HT's version of "doctorin' " has brightened and lengthened our days for sure.

I´m deeply saddened by HT´s passing. We met in a coalition to advocate for a performing center in Chinatown to realize then Councilmember Gerson´s vision to bring back the economy to Chinatown after 9/11. HT was always enthusiastic, knowledgable and resourceful. Our daughters were in the same grade and attended the same middle and high schools. We compared notes on our parenting experiences. He was widely respected by colleagues as a dancer, an artist, and a mentor. What he accomplished has...

I just learned of H.T.'s passing and am saddened by it. I met him when I was an employee of Pan Asian Rep, and he an advisor. Just this past may I included him in Ballet Tech's celebration of Asian American History Month. I fondly remember his wonderful sense of humor and appreciation for all in the arts.

Mr. Chen was a kind and friendly person. He welcomed my children to his school and made us feel welcome. He is greatly missed. Our sincerest condolences to his family and friends.

I'm so saddened to learn of Hsueh-Tung's passing. I have fond memories of performing with him long ago with Young Audiences. I remember him as a beautiful person and beautiful dancer, with a great sense of humor. My sincerest condolences to Dian and family.

So saddened to hear of H.T.'s passing. I was so glad to see him a few years ago on one of my NY visits. My heart is with you.

Dear Dian, I send my sincere condolences to you, your family, and all those who loved HT. He was a a quiet, dynamic personality and a most generous spirit. He will be celebrated for his artistic talent and insights. I will celebrate him as a classmate, a professional colleague, and a friend. Ruth Abrahams

My condolences, Dian, and profound respect and appreciation for H.T. This line of the obituary stands out to me: He possessed a childlike wonder and approach to life which led him to see beauty and art in everything and everyone he crossed paths with. I'm glad to have been touched by H.T. and his work!
