Sudha Shenoy, RIP

As many of you have by now already heard the bad news is that the dear Sudha Shenoy, hostorian, scholar and all around wonderful person has passed away from a bout with cancer. She will be sorely missed. In reading several obits (1, 2, 3, and 4) I began to think of my favorite things Sudha:

1. Her annoyance that legal history and any institutional economics of the law are excessively Amero-centric.

2. Her annoyance that economists don't know squat about history.

3. Her willingness to put "I, pencil" to shame with thorough production histories.

4. Her memories of hanging out with Murray and Joey, and her willingness to share them.

5. Her eagerness to meet with students and offer reading suggestions.

BTW. Bo Diddley will also be missed.
