Richards, an investment manager and philanthropist who funded unique research on what it would take to make an independent Palestinian state viable as well as on the costs of the continuing Israeli-Palestinian conflict, has died. He was 75. Richards, who was a major donor to the RAND Corporation, died March 19 of amy- otrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) at his home in Santa Monica, his family announced. His ties to RAND spanned more than a decade. Richards was a member of the RAND Board of Trustees from 2011 to 2014, served on the board of advisors of RAND Health from 2000 to 2014, and the advisory board of the organization’s Center for Middle East Public Policy from 2003 to 2014. “The David I knew was a true visionary, bold in his thinking, with an ability to express his thoughts clearly and convincingly,” said Michael Rich, president and chief executive officer of RAND. “It is impossible to overstate how much David meant to me and the many others he touched here.” The first RAND study Richards underwrote - “Building a Successful Palestinian State” - focused on a single question: How can an independent Palestinian state, if created, be made successful? It came about after Richards contacted RAND, hoping to see an end to the Israeli-Palestine conflict. When the report was released in 2005, it contained, “the most comprehensive recom- mendations ever made for the success of an independent Palestinian state,” a RAND release said at the time. The long list of suggested improvements included a landmark rail, highway and infrastructure link between the West Bank and Gaza intended to spur development in a new Palestinian state. Under a headline that read “The Day After Peace: Designing Palestine,” the New York Times wrote about the pioneering research in 2005, saying that RAND had delivered a “gimlet-eyed survey of life in the West Bank and Gaza Strip that shows how far Palestinians are from viable statehood.”Don’t Two just years later,sit thethere Middle withEast Journal called the study a “refreshingly upbeat ‘how to’ manual” that identified the main challenges to SURF FORECASTS WATER TEMP: 64.1° an independent Palestinian state.a hygienic vacuum cap on.

He earned a master’s degree in 1963 in philosophy, politics and economics from Wadham College, Oxford University and a second master’s degree in business adminis- tration from the Harvard Business School in 1965. Harvard and Wadham colleges were prominent among his philanthropic interests. From 1973 to 1991, Richards worked as a fund manager for two noted investment firms, Capital Research Comingand Management to Comics in Los Angeles, & Stuff and PRIMECAP … Management in Pasadena, California. Richards also had a career-long dedication to advancing thinking about economic the- ory and developing solutions to economic and foreign policy problems. His support for the Joint Center for History and Economics at Harvard and Cambridge universities reflects these concerns. In addition, he was a founding member of the Global Partners Council of the Institute for New Economic Thinking. In 1967, Richards married Carol A. Liebich. Their eldest son, Adam, is a physician and assistant professor of medicine at UCLA School of Medicine. Their other son, Peter, is an actor and director based in NewWarning! York. Richards is survived byCaring his wife and is children, habit-forming. grandchildren Theo and Ian, and a brother, Robert C. Richards. Since 1979, David Richards had lived part of each year with his family on a farm in Stonington, Maine, and loved to get out on the surrounding water in the calm, early- morning hours and go rowing, his family said. “He was the quintessential out-of-the-box thinker,” said Jeffrey Wasserman, vice president of RAND Health. “I think of him like Wayne Gretzky, skating not to where the puck is, but where it is going to be.” - SUBMITTED BY LISA SODDERS
