Body

 

Bill died Nov. 23, 2022, after being diagnosed with a blood infection and suffering a subsequent stroke. 

Bill worked in Paris and London before settling in New York and founding a consulting firm called the Center for Management Technology. He was extremely proud of being a Princeton alum and held on to many connections over the years and dedicated time to fundraising.

Bill adored traveling and was proud that he had traveled to almost every continent and more than 50 countries, as well as many adventures across the United States. He enjoyed classical music at the Philharmonic and was a connoisseur of French food and wine. On Sunday afternoons, he looked forward to completing all the puzzles in The New York Times Magazine. Friends and family appreciated Bill’s sense of curiosity and the breadth of his knowledge on countless subjects, from physics to history.

He is survived by his wife, Connie; daughter Amy and her husband Matt Millikan; and two grandsons, Caleb and Noah.
