Sandra Feldman Passes Away

Sandra Feldman of the American Federation of Teachers died last night of cancer. Her obit notes that she was a mentee of Bayard Rustin and Albert Shanker. I recall that the AFT frequently bought space on the New York Times op-ed page for an ad-column written by Feldman. I remember reading it when I was younger and being impressed that she, of all the columnists, got her picture on the op-ed page. And then I found out it was an ad. But so what? since I usually (or always) agreed with her.
