Excerpt from the Dayton Daily News
Ohio’s horror community lost one of its most unique voices when Brady Allen died March 8, and colleagues of the longtime Wright State University lecturer say they will greatly miss the beloved writer and educator.
“He was one of a kind,” said Professor Robert E. Rubin, senior lecturer and director of ESL at Wright State. “I had an office next to him for years so some of my favorite memories of him are of the conversations we would have.”
Allen died at his home and was 54-years old.
Rubin’s relationship with Allen stretched over two decades. They bonded over sports, parenting and teaching he said. Their daughters also went to school together.
“I’m so glad he had the chance to experience being a grandfather. Though it was only for a few months prior to his passing he absolutely had a chance to adore his grandson,” Rubin said.
Allen taught at Wright State for years as a member of its extensive English faculty. While his tenure ended in 2022, colleagues continued to feel the educator’s presence.
