The printing industry lost one of its greatest stewards. Dr. Harvey R. Levenson, age 83, of Pismo Beach, California, has died.

Born and raised in Brooklyn, he retired from Cal Poly after a 30-year tenure there — the longest ongoing tenure of a department head or chair in the history of the university.
