Steve Rubin, founder of the Rubin Institute for Music Criticism at San Francisco Conservatory and a close friend of ours for thirty years, has died in a New York hospital, aged 81.

Starting out as a music writer on the NY Times, Steve became one of the most respected publishers in Anerica, continuing as consultant to Simon & Schuster to the end.

I will write more about Steve once the grim news has sunk in.

He is irreplaceable.
