Huvane took his own life the first week of February following a years-long battle with mental illness. The loss sent shock waves through Hollywood where he had hundreds upon hundreds of close friends and colleagues.

He was 47.
Huvane hailed from a family of high-profile brothers that included CAA’s Kevin Huvane, a talent agent, co-chairman and managing partner at the agency, and Stephen Huvane, a co-founder and talent publicist at Slate PR. His other family members include wife Cole; siblings Denise Whalen, Michael Huvane and Robert Huvane; his father, Martin Huvane; nieces and nephews, Declan Huvane, Danny Huvane, Sarah Huvane, Conor Huvane, Bridget Huvane, Sheena Huvane, Tommy Huvane, and Aidan Huvane; and his former sister-in-law, Ruth Ann Huvane.
