DanielStern, who sifted through his careers in jazz and symphonic music, advertising, movies and academia for psychic grist for the bittersweet, tightly crafted novels and short stories that were his crowning achievement, died Jan. 24 in Houston.
Stern found his métier in the short story, into which he distilled his fascination with form and a perspective where satire often fused with mercy.
Stern's early work reflected his friendships with the artistic elite of the 1950s, including the composer John Cage; the painter Jackson Pollock; and Lionel Trilling, the literary critic.
