I learned via Boston Photography Focus that Miriam Goodman passed away this week. There’s also an obituary in the Globe with information about memorial services and where to contribute in her honor.

I took a class from Miriam years ago, a class about writing and photography. Themes from that class still float around in my work. The image above is my poor pastiche of the wit and mystery of Miriam’s own work. The world is poorer for her loss. I don’t know how much longer her website www.miriamgoodman.com will be maintained, but I urge you to take a look.
