Robert Yablans, 55, passed away March 10, 2015. Born to Frank and Ruth Yablans, Robert was raised in Scarsdale, NY and moved to Colorado where he met his lovely wife, Susan. Robert was passionate about his ham radio (K0TZ) and his work at Denver University. His witty sense of humor and loving, kind spirit will be kept in the hearts of all who knew him. He will be missed dearly. Robert is survived by his wife, Susan, mother Ruth, and siblings Ed and Sharon. He is preceded in death by father Frank Yablans (1935-2014), former Hollywood producer and one-time President of Paramount Studios.
An unassuming but affable character, Bob Yablans graduated from Denver University (DU) in 1985 with a BA in mass communication, and specialized in film and TV production. Over his decade and a half working at DU, he served as the director of engineering for the School of Communication and then the Department of Media, Film and Journalism Studies, where he supervised the film and video production and post-production operations. But his work didn't stop at the MFJS door, as he worked with various Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences (AHSS) departments, namely Emergent Digital Practices, and he helped the School of Art and Art History.
There was a Memorial Service and Celebration of the Life of Bob and his many contributions to the University community on Tuesday, April 14, 2015 – 11 a.m. in the Hamilton Recital Hall at the Newman Center for the Performing Arts.
