In Memoriam

Bruce Roberts (1948 - 2010)

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our dear friend and colleague, Bruce Roberts, sales and marketing manager of the University of Utah Press, who died on March 13 after a brief illness. Bruce had been at the Press since 2007, but he was known by many in the book business as one of the partners of Salt Lake City’s counterculture bookstore, Cosmic Aeroplane. He cared about books and writers and social justice issues, and believed there was nothing that couldn’t be cured by blue sky and a two-lane road. He was beloved for his sense of humor. His passing leaves a real emptiness, and he will be missed by all who knew him.
