Matthew Flamm, a longtime reporter at Crain’s New York Business who covered transportation, technology and cannabis, passed away Jan. 2 after a nearly two-year battle with brain cancer at the age of 70.
Aaron Elstein of Crain’s New York writes, “Flamm wrote for the New York Post and the New York Observer before joining Crain’s in 2004, where he stayed until his retirement on Feb. 7, 2020. In addition to his formidable talents as a storyteller, he was an accomplished Aikido practitioner and poet.
“‘I loved how he always seemed to be on the verge of a chuckle,’ said Elisabeth Butler Cordova, deputy managing director at CNBC and a Crain’s alumna.”
