The Brooklyn Academy of Music has announced that it is deeply saddened by the loss of its esteemed board chair, Adam E. Max (1958-2020), who died on July 27 of cholangiocarcinoma (bile duct cancer), diagnosed last September. BAM chair since 2017, Max joined the board in 2003 and became co-vice chair in 2008. He led the institution with energy, humility, warmth, and humor, BAM writes.
Adam Max and his wife, Diane, became frequent BAM patrons in 1985 after receiving a membership as a wedding gift. Adam’s enthusiasm for the institution grew into a deep commitment, reflected in his generosity, his relationships with board members, staff, and BAM artists, and his delight in BAM’s engaged audiences, according to BAM.
