While there, she worked as a project archivist intern with the Newcomb Archives at the Newcomb College Institute. She later earned her master's degree from the University of Texas in Austin, where she served as an intern in Public Services at the Harry Ransom Center. Her career then took her to Alabama, where she joined the Department of Archives & Manuscripts at the Birmingham Public Library, before eventually returning home to Cleveland. Stephanie had a deep love for Cleveland sports, especially the Browns and Cavaliers. Music was another passion, and her wide-ranging taste always circled back to her favorite, Otis Redding. She will be remembered for her quick wit, her intelligence, her humor, and the warmth she shared with those fortunate enough to know her. She leaves behind her beloved dog, Chopper, who was her constant companion. She is survived by her sister, Laura (David) Mamer, nieces Madalyn Mamer and Olivia (Michael) Novick, and nephew Samuel Mamer.
