Hudson Institute's trustees, leadership, experts, and staff mourn the passing of Max Singer, our co-founder, senior fellow, and trustee emeritus, after a long and valiant battle with cancer. He was a public policy pioneer, a model of intellectual probity, and a cherished member of the Hudson family until the very end. We are deeply grateful for his life and this loss will be felt acutely.
