PETER LUSK Obituary

LUSK--Peter Anthony, Sr.,

was born on St. Patrick's Day 1938, the son of Robert Emmett Lusk and Eloise Kaiser Lusk. Educated at Lawrenceville School, Yale University, where he captained the 1959-1960 swimming team, and the Harvard Business School, Peter went on to achieve a successful career in finance. He was a partner of Lehman Brothers and a Vice President of E.F. Hutton before co-founding the Forstmann Leff Associates hedge fund. Peter was as large in spirit, desire and culture as he was in size. He was a force in his Yale swim team victories and in his career achievements. Peter is survived by his wife, Heidi Staun Lusk, his sister, Mary Lusk Ughetta, his three children, Anne, Katherine, and Peter Jr., as well as his four granddaughters, Audrey, Millicent, Marina and Katherine.
