AUDREY STEINHORN Obituary

STEINHORN--Audrey, 1938-2020, beloved partner of Helen McDonald, mother of Bart, mother-in-law to Kim and grandmother of Jacob and Tyler passed peacefully on December 23 at the age of 82. A dedicated psychotherapist and LGBTQ advocate as well as an avid nature photographer whose work was shown throughout the Hudson Valley, Steinhorn was a longtime resident of the Upper West Side of Manhattan, where she raised her son. She spent her later years with McDonald in Saugerties, NY. Audrey will be greatly missed for her sharp sense of humor, strong will and determination ... and for being a super-fun grandmother.

I too am glad I had the opportunity to know Audrey. It has been years since we had contact. We presented a workshop together in Chicago in 1979. Just today, I came across some corespondence from her, so I went on line and sadly found her obituary. She was a wonderful person and a pleasure to meet. 8/20/21
