David Nyhan (December 23, 1940 – January 23, 2005), born Charles David Nyhan, Jr., was a journalist and biographer whose op-ed column ran in ''The Boston Globe'' newspaper for many years. After working for The Boston Globe for 32 years, he retired in 2001. A tall man at 6'4", Nyhan's writing was often characterized as bringing a "voice to the voiceless." He covered national politics and was a frequent source for commentary on presidential races and on the New Hampshire primary in particular. In his last column, he wrote: "The thing I'll miss most is the chance to shine a little flashlight on a dark corner, where a wrong was done to a powerless peon, where a scarred politician maybe deserved a better fate, where the process went awry, or the mob needed to be calmed down and herded in another direction." He died suddenly on January 23, 2005, suffering a heart attack after shoveling snow.〔Brian C.
