Temai Myambo ’96

Body

On Mar. 4, 2003, the class lost a dear friend and classmate, Temai Myambo, in a motorcycle accident in Miami. He was 28.

Temai was originally a resident of Mount Pleasant in Harare, Zimbabwe. While at Princeton he participated in track, football, and Body Hype. He majored in ecology and evolutionary biology.

Following his time at Princeton, Temai pursued a career in acting. Many classmates enjoyed seeing Temai appear on an episode of Law and Order.

Temai is survived by his parents, Simon and Kathleen Myambo, and his sister, Melissa. The Myambo family will host a memorial service July 31, in NYC. The family invites all of Temai's friends to attend and encourages classmates to contact them at temaimyambo@yahoo.com for further details. The class offers its sincere condolences to Temai's family.
