Morris "Moe" Stein (1921-2006)

Monday May 8, 11 AM

I have just learned of the death last week of Moe Stein, a stalwart in the field of creativity, and a good friend to its practitioners and researchers.  Funeral Services for Moe took place  Tuesday May 8, 2006 at 11:00 AM at the Gramercy Park Memorial Chapel in New York. 

I still have not found an obituary published.

As I get more information and details, I will post them here.

Share your thoughts and memories

I created a discussion web to allow visitors to this site to share their stories and experiences of Moe Stein and his work. I have shut down that function because it was only getting obnoxious spam.
