The NY Times has an odd obituary, including an entire paragraph of adjectives used to describe her.
I prefer Newsday's coverage, with this obituary and this essay adapted from a speech she gave on April 7.
This post by a blogger I hadn't read before is quite good. I found it via TBOGG.
I just realized something. None of the obituaries talk about her being queer, but she was in a relationship with Annie Leibovitz for a long time.
Interestingly the Daily News, which I was freereading while waiting for falafel, mentioned it.
The print version of the Times mentioned them being together, but not the online version. Odd.
