In Memoriam: Christopher Cieri 1963-2023
With deep sadness, LDC announces the passing of Christopher Cieri, our Executive Director. Chris led the Consortium for over 25 years, guiding its evolution from a small data repository and research hub to a prominent global data center. 

An accomplished linguist and computer scientist and a well-read humanist, Chris embodied the best qualities for executing the wide range of duties demanded by his leadership role. He was a valued colleague and friend and will be sorely missed.

All are welcome to visit our remembrance page for Chris.
