In addition to agreeing entirely with all the above comments about Art – e.g. Paul Holmes’s phrase “graceful prose, unfailing sense of humour”, Bernd Debusmann’s “sparkling prose”, Evelyn Leopold’s “beautiful, clear and ordered journalism”, Sam Perry’s “fluid genius” and Roy Gutman’s “spotter of news”, I would just like to add that he was one of the most RELIABLE colleagues I have ever worked with. Send him on an assignment, no worries. Turn your back on him, no worries. Leave him in charge, no worries. What a great and reliable journalist and friend!

Art was one of the best writers, journalists and colleagues I’ve had the privilege of working with. A terrific spotter of news, fact-gatherer and story-teller. And a real mensch. What a loss for us all.
