In Memoriam: Ary Moleon

From the NYT:

Ary Moleon, who spent four decades covering diplomacy and politics in Washington for The Associated Press’ Latin American service, has died. He was 82.

Moleon died of natural causes Tuesday while he slept in his home in Broward County, Fla., according to his son, Fernando.

Moleon arrived in New York with his family in 1962 after a stint working in Colombia. He was hired by the AP and spent the next 40 years with the agency, almost all of that time in Washington.
