She received her BA in Music from Northwestern University, and a MA in Education from the University of Cincinnati. Always a talented violinist and artist, she found her true calling and creative outlet as a teacher specializing in learning disabilities. Active in civil rights beginning in the 1960’s, she dedicated her life to all forms of equality, especially helping the learning disabled get a productive foothold in a complex and challenging world. Holly will be remembered for her ready laugh about any and all funny aspects of life, not the least of which was herself. She was, by all accounts, a true original, warm, joyous, creative, and fun.
