In Memoriam: Madeline Matz
/Sadly, I also note the passing of Madeline Matz, my former colleague at The Museum of Modern Art, as well as my neighborhood friend from the Upper West Side of Manhattan. I had the privilege of knowing her both professionally and personally, starting when I worked in the Department of Film at The Museum of Modern Art. Madeline was involved in the preservation of movies in MoMA’s collection, and I was the one who catalogued them following her conservation work.

Sadly, Madeline passed away in June of this year.
