Steve Brower, Publisher and Author of Roy Kuhlman Monograph, Dies at 74

Steve Brower, a prominent figure in the publishing world and author of the book "Roy Kuhlman: The Reluctant Modernist," passed away at the age of 74. The news came as a shock to Steven Heller, who had posted a reprise of an earlier notice about Brower's book on his Daily Heller blog the previous Friday. Heller expected to hear from Brower about the surprise posting but instead learned of his death the following day. Brower's contribution to art publishing, particularly his work on the modernist designer Roy Kuhlman, has left a lasting impact on the field.
