August 15, 2005: Obituary for Mary Ann Malkin, Bibliophile
"NEW YORK — Mary Ann Malkin, a noted rare-book collector and editor who for nearly two decades helped run AB Bookman’s Weekly, the well-thumbed bible of the rare- and secondhand-book business that inflamed and then often sated the acquisitive passions of book collectors around the world, died on Aug. 1 at her home in Manhattan. She was 92.
Malkin apparently died in her sleep, said Eric Holzenberg, the director of the Grolier Club of New York, the bibliophilic organization, which announced the death."
