Einstein celebrates the life of Irving Kahn. Mr. Kahn’s family announced his death at age 109 today. Along with his three siblings, all of whom lived beyond the age of 100, he contributed to aging research as a participant in our Longevity Genes Project. Remarkably, he continued to work three days a week at the investment firm he co-founded up until he was 108. Read more about his life at www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-02-26/irving-…
