The Harvard Kennedy School is mourning the sudden death of Setti D. Warren, Director of its Institute of Politics (IOP) and former Mayor of Newton, Massachusetts, describing him as a 'visionary and tireless leader' whose passing is a profound loss for both Harvard and the wider public service community.
The Harvard Crimson reported that Warren, aged 55, was found unresponsive at his home in Newton, the city he once led as mayor. Emergency responders pronounced him dead at the scene.
