Peter N. Corodimas ’60

PETER N. CORODIMAS, Morrisonville, NY, died November 20, 2022. Born in Plattsburgh, NY, Pete received a degree in English literature from Saint Michael’s, a master’s degree from John Carroll University, and a Ph.D. in American literature from The Ohio State University. Pete’s longing for the North Country trout streams led to his return to Plattsburgh with his family and a position in the English Department at SUNY. He loved teaching, he loved fishing, and he loved his family, a winning combination. Throughout the years, Pete was a prolific writer and published several of his short stories in academic journals and periodicals. A short story published in the New Yorker magazine was among his most notable; he jokingly stated that at a dollar a word, he hoped there would be minimal editing. His wry commentary on life was a constant and cherished memory. Pete is survived by his five children, seven grandchildren, extended family, and dear friends.
