Lewis Katz

The Day I Heard President Clinton, a Senator, a Governor and Bill Cosby Speak

I don't often talk about my work because I like to keep my public and private life separate. Those who know me are aware that I am a director on the strategic marketing and communications team at Temple University. Yesterday I attend the memorial service for Lewis Katz who tragically died in a plane crash last weekend. Katz was a businessman, philanthropist and a man who touched the lives of many. I really didn't know much about him. Yes, being from Philadelphia, I knew that he co-owned the city's Philadelphia Inquirer newspaper, but I didn't know that he used to own a NBA team, had been a lawyer and that he spent a lot of time helping others.
