My mother, Marian Powers Goodman, was remarkable and unique. She had a simple upbringing, born in Ohio. Then she came to New York and had a brilliant career in textile design. She married my father, a surgeon, Edmund Goodman, and had 4 children in 6 years. She took us with her everywhere she loved; the theater, the ballet, all the museums, the philarmonic…we were privileged to be New Yorkers and all its cultural offerings with her.
We had everything with her. She died peacefully yesterday morning. Whoever I am, I am because of her.❤️
