An Open Letter from Ryan Kavanaugh, CEO of Relativity, on the Passing of Tom Sherak
'I first met Tom Sherak when I was a student at UCLA. Tom taught a course called 'Distribution 101.' I was fortunate enough to not only have him as my teacher, but for him to become my mentor. That first class led to what would become a lifelong friendship and an incredible source of personal encouragement and strength for me.
