Thoughts on the passing of entertainment impresario Harvey Glatt, 91. As well as his defining kindness and thoughtfulness, Harvey acted at an amazing level of intellectual courage, always with integrity dignity and honesty. He confirmed that right and good could succeed, with elan, always. Although the original application for CHEZ-FM was a most concrete example of Harvey in action, that he and Louise raised three remarkable children, in what it must have been hectic and demanding milieux, is most telling. Harvey was and is an extraordinary role model. If I did not know him, I would not be who I am. His passing on 20 August 2025 is worthy of much regret and many tears. N'oublions Jamais.
