James Loehlin
by James Ayres 05 Nov '23

05 Nov '23

After a lengthy and bold struggle with pancreatic cancer, James has passed away. We have lost a brilliant colleague, scholar, actor, director, student, and kind friend. He loved Shakespeare, teaching, and all of his students. And he loved the barn at Winedale. This is a very sad time. Please keep Laurel in your thoughts and prayers. Peace and love to every one of you. Love, Doc Jim (Doc) Ayres Professor Emeritus, The University of Texas Founding Director, Shakespeare at Winedale and Camp Shakespeare Director of Mission, Camp Shakespeare

Oh no.. Nick was one of the best. Funny, kind, energetic..he was a true light that 76 summer. And I had no idea what he'd done since then, but obviously that same energy, humor, talent, and I would suspect kindness must have continued or he would have never had that rich career. Wow. Thanks for letting us know, Doc. Too young....
