Sadly, the Brooklyn birding community has lost another friend. Brooklyn Bird Club member and trailblazing photojournalist Kathy Willens passed away after a long illness. She was a regular in both Green-Wood Cemetery and Prospect Park. About a year ago, while strolling with her in Green-Wood Cemetery, she thanked me for introducing her to the Brooklyn Bird Club. It was a pleasure knowing her. Rest in peace, Kathy.
NEW YORK (AP) — Kathy Willens, a pathbreaking photojournalist who helped cement women’s place behind the lens everywhere from the Super Bowl to war-torn Somalia during her nearly 45-year career at The Associated Press, died Tuesday. She was 74.
