'Life with Steve was never boring.

He was supremely independent, the true radical in our family, unfailingly going to the root of the problem.

He spoke his mind.

He had a CD with a dozen variations of “My Way”—from Billy Bragg to Frank Sinatra.

And as The Chronicle of Higher Education subtitled its 2017 profile of Steve, he “was the most controversial Russia expert in America.”’

"In remembrance of and gratitude to my colleague, mentor and friend, Professor Stephen F. Cohen, 1938-2020.

The hundreds of hours of his thoughts on geopolitical mysteries are a towering tribute to his energy, genius, kindness and courage."
