David Brady Bryson ’63

David, who spent most of his legal career advocating for better housing for the poor, died last Christmas morning with his family surrounding him. His life was cut short by lung cancer, although he was not a smoker.

Housing experts cited him as a central figure in the development of housing legislation and regulations. He took part in key court cases involving housing law and won honors from the California State Bar and other groups.

David, who lived in Piedmont, Calif., grew up in Westminster, Md., went to McDonough School and then became a religion-philosophy major at Princeton. He was in Cottage Club and the Keycept Program and roomed during senior year with Dick Jones and Chip Crothers. After Princeton, he went to law school at Columbia U. and taught at the U. of Ghana.

The class extends its sympathies to his wife, Anita; daughter, Hallie; sons, Paul '03 and Ethan; parents, Mary and Brady; sister, Linda Lucatorto; and brothers, John and Tim.
