Carolyn Heilbrun Dies at 77
Feminist scholar and mystery writer (Amanda Cross) dies at 77 in an apparent suicide.

Carolyn G. Heilbrun, a well-known feminist scholar who retired from Columbia University in 1992, died last week, apparently by suicide.

"She wanted to control her destiny," her son, Robert, told The New York Times, adding that Ms. Heilbrun, who was 77, had not been ill. "She felt her life was a journey that had concluded."
