Alan Benewitz Obituary
Throughout his career, Alan was a respected figure at Thorograph Racing, where he dedicated himself to the analysis of thoroughbred racing statistics. Known for his acumen in identifying the long shots, his intelligence and wit were as much a part of his professional life as they were of his personal interactions.
Alan was a true gentleman and a lifelong New Yorker, cherishing his life in Manhattan where he lived after college. He is fondly remembered for his sharp humor and his gentle, considerate nature.
He leaves behind his long-time partner, Irene Nesbit; his sister, Lesley Frank, brother-in-law Robert Frank, and nephews Jesse and Jeremy Frank. Alan was predeceased by his twin brother, Mark, and his parents, Maurice and Doris (Ladell) Benewit
