MARTIN ZWEIG Obituary

ZWEIG--Marty. We mourn the loss of our dear friend and former partner. Our deepest sympathies to his beloved wife Barbara and his children, Zack and Alex. He loved to have a good time. His sense of humor and down to earth qualities endeared him to friends and acquaintances alike. He was an incredibly hard worker and had great integrity and honesty. I was honored to have been his partner for 10 years. Rosalind and Gene Glaser

Yesterday

I knew Marty (Gateman) who was one year behind me at Coral Gables Senior High School (I graduated in '63). I remember him as a nice kid, a bright one too. The reason for not knowing him better was simply that we were in different AZA chapters. It's a shame he had to die so young. I'm very sorry for your loss back in 2013.

Having attended your party atop the Pierre Hotel for the Museum of Finance fundraiser, I was thrilled to meet Martin and his Wife. Martin was always in touch with the financial community which he served well... I wish all the best to Martin's Family and Friends...

You were an amazing mentor and example for our daughter, Liz Ann Sonders, as she began her career at Avatar. She has kept your principals with her during her career and credits you with her philosophy. Our sympathies to the family.

In the 1940's I lived in an apartment in Cleveland Heights, OH at 2472 Derbyshire Rd. In the unit below mine lived the Zweig family including little Martin. He lived there from ages 1-10 and I enjoyed watching this little fellow grow up. I followed his career in Economics and was proud to have known him before he became famous. And yes I also have a BS degree in Economics, this one from the University of Wisconsin, Madison.

As I grew up, my favorite show was Wall Street Week and my favorite guest was Marty Zweig, he came across with that nervousness and Louis always seemed to enjoy his nervousness in a loving way. Mr. Zweig also showed brilliance in market analysis. Mr. Zweig also seemed to find humor in his reflections on his own nervousness that is why I loved that undercurrent on the show. RIP I will miss you.

We grew up about 10 houses from each other in Coral Gables.Hung out together, belonged to the same AZA. He was always nervous even when we played poker in high school for dimes. I have nothing but fond memories of him, Always a mensch. A tragic loss.

I was an early and continuous subscriber to The Zweig Forecast. It was always a very valuable resource. Marty was a true innovator in technical analysis. He was also very generous in corresponding with me. I have great admiration for him and am very sad to learn of his death.

I knew Marty primarily through Penn alumni activities over the years since our graduation in '64. In addition to being a superb stock market prognosticator, Marty was a true gentleman with a wonderful, wry sense of humor. He will be greatly missed by all of us whose lives he touched. My heartfelt sympathies go out to Barbara, Zachary and Alex. Rest In Peace, Marty.

I, my sister and mother all worked for Marty. He was a huge part of my life. He was a wonderful boss. Marty was a natural worrier, but kind, compassionate and generous. The world has lost a genuine soul. Rest in Peace, Marty.

As a Production Secretary for Wall $treet Week With Louis Rukeyser for over 21 years, I worked with and knew all of our panelists very well. I was saddened to learn of Marty's passing My thoughts are with Barbara, Zack and Alex. Marty was a good person even if he did worry about eveything. RIP

Marty was a pioneer. Many investors owe their success to his insights. Despite his success, he was modest, unpretentious, approachable and "down
to earth". At his peak of popularity,
no one was more quoted, respected and admired--both by his peers and the investor. If those qualities mean anything in the hereafter, Marty's soul should rest peacefully and happily for eternity.

I met Marty when we were both students at the Wharton School as undergrads at Penn. He was full of life and just a fun guy to hang out with. He will be missed and I extend my condolences to his family.
After graduation I lost track of him until he started appearing on Louis Rukeyser's show. Since I knew him in school as MARTY GATEMAN I never realized it was him until I contacted him.

I worked for Marty when he had just begun the Zweig Forecast. He showed up for work in jeans and worried incessantly about the market. He was a wonderful, giving boss and a great person.

He was an inspiration to me, as a student of the stock market, with his lack of pretentiousness and candid assessments. A true professional. My heartfelt sympathies to his family.
