Matt Winston
I’ve had the good fortune to meet a lot of very smart people in my life. Matt Winston was among the smartest.
Matt could talk to you intelligently about virtually any topic imaginable, and usually had a point of view about it you had never considered.
A polymath and an autodidact, remarkably, he taught himself both Russian and Japanese.
Along with his wife Kazuko, he raised two of the finest kids I know -- my nephew Theo and my niece Aya.
Matt died last weekend after a brief but difficult battle with leukemia.
RIP Matt Winston.
