This is the sixty-eigth in a series of videos in which I engage in some storytelling about my own personal experiences, relationships, realizations, and life. Sometimes these might connect with my profession as a philosopher, but often that won't be the case.
In this video, I talk about Professor Emeritus Lewis Hahn, who had been an integral member of the Philosophy department at Southern Illinois University Carbondale, and was still very active when I went there for graduate school in 1995. Lewis Hahn was very well-connected within the larger philosophy world and a very helpful source of information. He also was the second editor of the Library of Living Philosophers series. Hahn generally attended our Agora series of faculty and grad student presentations, and it was in one of those that he collapsed while sitting at the table. He was taken to the hospital and died shortly after. He was in his late 80s when he died, and he went out doing what he enjoyed and found valuable.
