Mary 1951-1984

Mary was an artist. We met while students at PCA. She was an illustration major and I was a sculptor. She was from Southwest Philly and had graduated from West Catholic Girls High School with a Mayors' scholarship to attend art school. She was very talented and worked hard to become successful as an artist. Her work post school included, Art Director at North American Publishing for three monthly magazines, Printing Impressions and two others. She was the Art Director for Met-Pro Corp. where she won a Gold Medal from The Art Directors Club for one of her ad campaigns. She had many dreams and yet her life ended today twenty- two years ago. I still miss her deeply.
