development news and we also take time to remember an important member of the NHPF family.

Frank L. Sullivan, Jr. (1945–1922) A Remembrance By Richard F. Burns, CEO, The NHP Foundation When writing a remembrance, it’s very easy to fall back on cliches—“A giant of the industry,” or “An inspiration to us all,” or “Smartest guy in the room,” but in the case of Frank L. Sullivan, Jr. who passed away this past August, these descriptions and more help tell the story of a man who demonstrated in action, and word, tremendous passion for his work, his family, and his friends. And, in no small part, helped influence the trajectory of affordable multifamily housing throughout the country. Upon graduating from Wharton, Frank held several senior real estate positions in the banking and financial services industries. In 1984, he became one of the founding partners of Clarion Partners, a leading New York-based commercial real estate investment firm, where he represented some of our nation's largest public institutions and their pensioners, including police officers, firefighters, teachers, and city workers. He was extraordinarily proud of the significant returns he achieved for various public employees in New York City and beyond.
