Anthony "Tony" Gully, 83, died on March 17, 2021. He received degrees in history and art history at the University of California, Riverside. He earned a MA at the University of California, Berkeley, with a break to teach in a one-room school in the remote Trinity Alps. After a PhD at Stanford University, he spent his career at ASU.



ASU was good to him with sabbaticals in London and over twenty summer sessions in Florence, Italy. He edited journals, helped found organizations, mentored student-curated exhibits at the ASU Art Museum, and lectured at the Phoenix Art Museum where he and Sue Gordon produced the show "John Ruskin and the Victorian Eye." After 36 years, he retired from the School of Art at ASU in 2008. Following retirement, he taught four summers in London for Ohio University. Besides in classrooms large and small, he delighted in showing students art and buildings in the museums and streets of London and Italy.



Tony is survived by his wife, Anne; three daughters, six grandchildren, five nieces, two nephews, and two sisters-in-law. Memorial donations may be made to the Desert Botanical Garden, 1201 N.
