Judi Chamberlin, 1944-2010

It's my sad duty to inform you all that psychiatry survivor and grandmother of the Mad Pride movement Judi Chamberlin died on Saturday after a long illness. Chamberlin was 65. I gather that NPR's "Morning Edition" will be doing a piece on her today.

I don't like talking about death too much and others are far more qualified to write about Chamberlin's life and work, but I can say with complete confidence that she was a hero.

Please show your respect by leaving a comment at Chamberlin's blog (first link above), which will remain active.
