Remembering Maggi Popkin

Steve Weber, Program on International Policy Attitudes staff

May 23
Dear Popkin Family,

The Due Process of Law Foundation shares office space with our group on Massachusetts Ave. While I've known Maggi less than a year, and only through occasional contacts, I was greatly saddened by her death.

Last December we went to an office-wide lunch; I sat across from Maggi and had the opportunity to learn a bit about her work. Of course, it was a charming, thoughtful conversation. We spoke further then and again around the office. Her intelligence and quiet warmth were always evident. When I look at her career, I envy the contributions she made to many people, organizations, and societies. I'm sure you are very proud of her.

With my condolences,

Steve Weber

We were so sorry to hear of Maggi's passing. She was a beloved colleague and the suite (to say nothing of the world) will be a less dynamic, pleasant place without her.

We would like to make a contribution to support the translation of her book into Spanish. Please contact us when you are able to sort out the details.

At times like this there is little to say that doesn't feel small or trite. Please know that we loved her, and that we hope you find peace as you see and seek the community of those who also loved her.
