We are grieved to announce that Nathan Hull passed away suddenly on August 9. Nathan taught in our department since 1980, first as an adjunct, and since 1994 as a full-time faculty member. Nathan was a dedicated and innovative teacher and a beloved colleague. He received the NYU CAS Outstanding Teaching Award in 1994 and in 1999. Nathan introduced personal computers to the department curriculum; he played key role in the development of the Web minor; he developed a number of innovative courses, including his popular elective on iOS programming; and he taught almost every course in the CS minor and major required sequences.
Outside NYU, he was a stalwart of the Village Light Opera Group, and the founder, president, and artistic director of the Amore Opera. Our sympathies to his family and friends.
