NY Times Obit.

She was an inspiring woman and a fantastic chef. This is a sad, sad story.

two out of four in that top chef masters photo have passed away untimely.

 

(well, i'm assuming the woman in the red top is still with us; des jardins is quoted in the obit.)

[bloviatrix]

The woman in the red is Mary Sue Milliken

Oh yes, and that show aeons ago with Susan Feniger, is my memory working? 

[Sneakeater]

If it is, you can totally come over here and remember things for me. 

[Wilfrid]

I finally watched her season of Top Chef Masters. Very impressive in all the ways.
