Alexander M. Fisken Jr.

From the Yale Alumni Magazine Class Notes:

From Hugh Spitzer (’70) comes word that Alec Fisken died on March 28, 2023, after a several years’ battle with prostate cancer. Entering Yale in the Class of 1970, Alec pursued the Five Year B.A. program. He spent the year between his sophomore and junior years with Crossroads Africa and graduated with us in 1971. Hugh notes that “Alec was a remarkable person: newspaper and magazine publisher, investment banker, Seattle Port Commissioner, scholar, sailor, skier, but more importantly a wonderful, thoughtful principled, and whimsical human being who cared deeply about his family, the Seattle community, and the Pacific Northwest.” At Yale, Alec was on the News and a member of St. Anthony’s Hall.
