1/ So much to celebrate about the life of Natalie Zemon Davis - a long life well lived to the end & an extraordinary impact over decades. She loomed large in my career from when I decided not to do a PhD with her at Princeton but follow my boyfriend to Hopkins instead:-)

There is no way of measuring the immensity of NZD's impact. How many had that spark ignited from one of her books? How many refused to give up on a sometimes hurtfully competitive sector because she modelled another way? How many continue to be curious because she celebrated it?

Saddened to hear of the passing of Natalie Zemon Davis. She inspired generations of historians, and her brilliance allowed others to sparkle with their own best lights. She will be missed. May her memory be a blessing.

We’re devastated to learn about the murder of Samantha Woll, a leader in the Detroit Jewish community, earlier today.

Everyone deserves to be safe and live without fear.

May her memory be a blessing.
