Thanks for sharing this with us, Robert. I am deeply saddened by this loss. Vera's voice has been a hugely important one in our field, and in this list, a voice we were so privileged to hear and respond to just few days ago. While her voice will be very missed, the posts, letters and texts recently shared here are but testimony that her words are and will continue to be well alive.

What a sad loss. I only met Vera once, when she gave a talk in Bristol, but I loved her writing, especially 'Creative Collaboration'.

Dear XMCA Family,

Our beloved Vera John-Steiner died last night very shortly after she experienced a stroke.
She had posted to this site on 11/25/17.  We will send more information and an obituary as it becomes available.  Attached is the last "letter" from *Constructing a Community of Thought:Letters on the Scholarship, Teaching, and Mentoring of Vera John-Steiner *(2013).
In this piece, we sought to synthesize all the wonderful contributions from so many of her friends, collaborators and students from the book mentioned above.

Warmest condolences to her family and to all her knew and loved her.
*Robert Lake*
