Many knew her as the elegant woman riding her bicycle along the streets of Cambridge. She was an accomplished artist of both fine art and crafts. She was a twenty-five year member of the Charles Riverbend Quilting Bee that, in warm weather, met in Longfellow Park. Her quilts were both traditional and highly original. Anne's house was lined with bookshelves of art and literary books and her closets filled with beautifully handmade clothes. She was a force of aesthetics, taste and grammar.
