David Lescht (February 12, 1948 – May 4, 2012)
David Lescht, founder and Director of Outside In Productions and the Santa Fe Bandstand, died unexpectedly of a heart attack on May 4th, 2012. David’s passing is an enormous loss. His work touched thousands of people, bringing music, hope, and a greater sense of community to us all. David is remembered, as his New Mexican obituary states, as a kind, humble, and selfless person, who said, with typical understatement, “I just try to bring a little light into dark places.”
We are shocked and deeply saddened by David’s death, and we join with his family and many friends in mourning his passing, celebrating his remarkable life, and honoring his legacy by continuing this important work.
Ron Hale, President
Outside In Board of Directors
