Frank Hahn first came to Cambridge as a Lecturer in the Faculty of Economics and Politics in 1960. He presented an intellectually terrifying figure whose brain worked many times faster than the time required for social niceties, but as his colleagues will testify, he also demonstrated a rare gift for friendship and loyalty.
Phyllis Deane, Emeritus Professor of the Economics Faculty has been made the 2010 Distinguished Fellow of the History of Economics Society, USA.
