    An obituary for Alan Dundes, Professor of Anthropology and Folklore at the University of California in Berkeley, who died in Mar 30, 2005, is presented. Dundes was a serious musician whose love of the clarinet and piano almost moved him to specialize in music, until he discovered folklore. For much of his career, he was known principally as a structuralist, a follower of the Russian folklorist Vladimir Propp.
