NEW YORK (April 7, 2022) – National Urban League President and CEO Marc H. Morial issued the following statement in response to the death of former Board Chair Michael Neidorff:
“The Urban League family was stunned and saddened to learn of the passing of our brother, Michael Neidorff. The loss of his leadership, his fellowship, and his mentorship leaves a void that cannot be filled.
“Mr. Neidorff assumed the chairmanship of the National Urban League Board of Trustees in 2014, having served on the Board since 2010. He brought a wealth of experience, wisdom, and professionalism to the role, guiding our organization through the crucial years of recovery following the Great Recession.
