Former Yellow Springs resident Budd Steinhilber died peacefully on Jan. 25, 2021, from natural causes, in care of hospice, at his apartment in Greenbrae, Calif. He was 96.
A forward-thinking “Renaissance Man,” Budd was a multi-talented, ecology-minded industrial designer and environmental activist, who received a grant from the NEA in 1990 to show how designers were trying to cope with the environmental crisis. A member of the Industrial Design Society of America, he also designed for print, media, product packaging and electronics.
While working for the J. Lippincott Agency in New York in 1947, Budd was among a group of designers, including Read Viemeister of Yellow Springs, hired by Preston Tucker to design the innovative but financially ill-fated Tucker automobile.

Phase I includes COVID-19 facing health care providers, first responders, staff and residents at congregate care settings, among others at high-risk for contracting the vi.
As it stands now, educators are not eligible to receive vaccinations until Phase II of the plan, which begins in February.
The North Shore Superintendents’ Round Table, which represents 29 districts, made their request known in a letter to Gov. Charlie Baker.
“We cite the guidance of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in urging you to prioritize the health and well being of our educators so that Massachusetts school districts can operate at the fullest possible strength as our nation begins to emerge from this global pandemic,” the letter states.
