The professor had a fascinating career which earned him such diverse admirers as Lenny Bruce, Ayn Rand, Robert Heinlein and theater critic Kenneth Tynan. Corey died yesterday. He was 102.

As is now practically mandatory with Bob's obituary posts, I checked up on this to verify (a) that he was dead and (b) that it occurred recently. Both seem to be the case, although he was one of those "I'd have sworn he died years ago" celebrities.
