Celebrating the Life of

Miriam Feldman

January 9, 1938  —  February 6, 2025

Obituary

“A brilliant mind and a warm hand, offered to everyone.”

Miriam Feldman taught mathematics for four decades and never lost her wonder at a clean proof or a curious student. She played piano by ear, argued kindly, and remembered every birthday. She raised three children and mentored hundreds. She leaves a family and a profession both better for her having been in them.
