Lawrence Klein

Lawrence D. "Larry" Klein died Thursday, Aug. 20, 2020, at home in Levittown, Pa. He was 82.

Born in Rochester, N.Y., he was the son of Sydney and Edith Klein.

Larry completed his undergraduate degree at Hobart and William Smith Colleges in Geneva, N.Y., and his graduate degree at Temple University in Philadelphia.
