I was also a studen of hers and think of her fondly and regularly. For me she was the foundation of our time at the Academy and I am grateful to have spent time under her wings. A powerful teacher and character.

I sat in the front row and tried to write down everything she said while likewise attempting to soak in her every word like a sponge. She was intense, focused, and passionate about her subject, all of which was apparent from her demeanor and every word. She was a force to be reckoned with; I don’t think everybody appreciated her, but I certainly did.
Thank you for posting this, to remind me of an important voice I heard long ago.
