William Frost died yesterday at the age of 84. He was a quiet giant in the world of Jewish philanthropy as the head of the Lucius N. Littauer Foundation, which delivers micro-grants to important academic and social-science work relating to the American Jewish community and has endowed chairs at major universities. He was part of a vanishing breed of lay leaders—secular Jews whose commitment to their people and their people’s future was ironclad, passionate, and ever-enduring.
