WASHINGTON-Amy Zoslov, the former chief of the auctions and industry analysis division of the FCC’s Wireless Telecommunications Bureau, died earlier this month of cancer. She was 42.
Zoslov spent most of her career at the Federal Communications Commission working in three different bureaus and acting as a legal adviser to former FCC Commissioner Ervin Duggan. She graduated from Case Western Reserve University in 1983.
She left the agency in 1988 to join the law firm of Miller, Young & Holbrooke, but returned in 1990 as an attorney in the enforcement division of the FCC’s Mass Media Bureau.
Zoslov is credited with playing a major role in the development of the FCC’s Cable Services Bureau and the FCC’s auction program. She was promoted to chief of the auctions division in 1998.
“Amy was a gifted lawyer and a fine manager, with a deep commitment to her colleagues and to the work of this agency. Like everyone who worked with Amy, I knew her to be an extraordinary person who brought warmth and caring and passion to everything she did. Perhaps the most fitting tribute to Amy is the mark she leaves on our hearts. She will be deeply missed but always remembered,” said FCC Chairman William Kennard.
A memorial service will be held at 1 p.m. Sept. 17 at the Congregation Agudas Achim in Alexandria, Va. In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made to the Hospice of the Florida Suncoast, 300 East Bay Drive, Largo, Fla. 33770.
