Obituary on International Association of Women in Radio and TV site

Here is a link to an article remembering Mal and a photograph on the IAWRT website. Mal was a great favourite in this organisation, and did a great deal of work as a board member and UN Representative to put it on its current track. http://www.iawrt.org/Archives/2007/2007_MalJohnson_obit.htm

If anyone would like to make a donation to IAWRT as a remembrance of Mal, you can reach the organisation through its website. IAWRT gives scholarships, travel fellowships for meetings, and production grants, and the nascent US chapter will be seeking support for its nonprofit incorporation in the US - a project Mal was working on until just before she died. She strongly believed that IAWRT needed to broaden its funding base, and that having a chapter that could seek donations in the US was the next order of business. IAWRT US members, please take note and live up to her challengs.

Yours, (past President) Frieda Werden
