1962 - 2022

October 17, 1962 - October 11, 2022 Brian, beloved husband, father, son and brother, has passed away at the age of 59 in Oak Park, California. He is survived by his wife Diana of 28 years, adult children Daniella, Jake and Kyra, mother Judith Feder, brother Stacey Fields, sister-in-law Julie Fields, sister Karyn Silver, step-brother Todd Feder, step-sister Sherri Feder, nephews Logan Fields, Griffen Fields, Max Silver, Sam Silver, Uncle and Aunt Ray & Peggy Rosenthal, step-mother Cindy Fields and too many cousins to mention. He was pre-deceased by his father Edwin Fields FAIA, and his aunt Bobbie Levine.

Brian was a devoted dad who would do anything for his kids. He shared his feelings freely and was always ready for the next adventure. His family and friends were a huge part of his life. He was a wonderful son, brother, uncle, nephew, cousin, and friend to many. A sport fanatic at heart and a die hard Trojan, he would always dissect every game, play by play, with his Phi Delt frat brothers. He loved the beach, history, gardening and hiking along the hills of Oak Park with the family dog, Mrs. Nuts.

Brian was born in Los Angeles and graduated from Beverly Hills High School in 1980, received his B.A. in History from University of Southern California in 1984 and his J.D. from Loyola Law School in 1988. He began his legal career as an associate attorney at Lynberg & Watkins in Los Angeles, before moving to an in-house counsel position at Thrifty Corporation. He subsequently moved to biomedical company Alpha Therapeutic Corporation, before his appointment as Deputy General Counsel and Compliance Officer for Wellpoint/Anthem Insurance Company. Brian was subsequently appointed as General Counsel of Public Storage, followed by his position as General Counsel/EVP of Health Data Insights in Las Vegas, NV. He returned to California when he became Deputy General Counsel, Chief Compliance Officer and Chief Privacy Officer for Healthnet Corporation. Most recently, Brian was Chief Compliance Officer for FFF Corporation in Temecula.

Services will be held on Friday, October 14, 2022, at 12:30 pm, at Mount Sinai Memorial Park, 5950 Forest Lawn Dr., Los Angeles. The family requests that, in lieu of flowers, donations be made to Cedars-Sinai Hospital's online "Circle of Friends" for pancreatic cancer research to Dr. Nicholas Nissen, Brian's pancreatic cancer surgeon.
