Marge Brown Media Services: Head of Electronic Imaging Sign the Guest Book Obiturary from The Olympian |
By now most of you will have seen the email that Wyatt Cates sent informing the community that Marge Brown passed away on Sunday morning. Marge fought a long and courageous battle with cancer these last few years. Her contributions to this community have been important and substantial, and the excellent relationships she enjoyed with co-workers, students and faculty colleagues are an indication of how important she has been to this community. At various times, Marge has been a student, staff member and faculty member. She started her work in Media Services as a student employee in 1977 and became a classified staff member in 1979. She worked in Media Loan, Photo Production Services and most recently in Electronic Media. Since 1990 she has been the Electronic Media Producer in charge of video productions at Evergreen. She taught in many academic classes over the years and each summer she offered her very popular Experimental Animation Techniques program. Other courses that Marge taught included Space/Time/Imagination, Video Production and Introduction to Media Presentation. Marge was also extremely active in the local independent media community. She was a member of Wovie, Inc. and a co-producer of their film, "Group," which made it's commercial debut in New York, City in 2002. Please join us in sharing our thoughts about Marge with her colleagues across the campus. In the coming days, we will make sure that any information we get in regards to a memorial service is shared with the community. The family has indicated that they would prefer to wait to have an on-campus service until the Fall when more of the students and faculty have returned to campus. A special thank you to Wyatt, Peter Randlette and Ruth Hayes, among others, for their caring and sensitive response in this difficult moment for our community.
