I am honored to have had the opportunity when as a young designer I met and was welcomed to observe Tharon Musser at work on a couple of productions in the mid 70's. Sincerest condolences to Marilyn and all of the theatrical community who loved and respected Tharon for her remarkable contribution to the art of lighting.
