- <p> DIED. LEWIS GILBERT, 86, shareholder-activist; in New York City.
- Attending more than 100 corporate annual meetings a year for
- over 50 years, Lewis inspired anger as well as a dash of fear
- in company officers by demanding his rights as a shareholder.
- Committed to "corporate democracy," he prompted management to
- hold meetings in easily reached locations, release postmeeting
- reports, place limits on executive stock options and in general
- act accountably.
