At ninety-four, Clive Davis — the man who heard something in Whitney Houston before the world did, who helped build the architecture of modern American music — was admitted to a New York hospital Friday evening with an upper respiratory infection. His representatives described the measure as precautionary, with a return home expected within a day. It is a brief medical episode, yet it arrives as a quiet reminder that even those who have shaped the soundtrack of a civilization are not exempt from the ordinary fragility of being human.
