A lifelong scholar with degrees in engineering, German, and Sanskrit, Nagaraja “Mani” Subramanian M.S. ’85 combined brilliance with humility. His path took him from a childhood as one of nine children in Tamilnadu, India, to engineering work in Mumbai and Germany, to a long and impactful career in  hardware and software at Intel, IBM and other companies across Silicon Valley. He found great joy sharing knowledge with others and taught Ashtanga yoga at the Mountain View senior center. Most of all, Mani cherished his family which included his two daughters, his many nieces and nephews, and his adored grandsons. Mani died on June 20, 2025.
