Death of bold NY labor leader Mike Quill at 60
Mike Quill, fiery fight leader of New York transit unions, died at 60 in his East 72nd Street apartment from a coronary occlusion. The longtime head of transit workers’ unions helped organize a New Year’s strike that shut buses and subways for 12 days, costing the city about a billion dollars. Quill’s physician noted he worked too hard and stayed active despite illness, and he remained influential in labor negotiations until his death.
