Artist, Activist Toshi Seeger Dead at 91 
-----------------------------------------


 
The artist, filmmaker and activist Toshi Seeger has died at the age of
91. She was the wife of Pete Seeger and a key leader and artistic
programmer for the Great Hudson River Revival, the annual fundraiser for
the Clearwater organization that helped to clean up the Hudson River in
New York. She died on Tuesday, less than two weeks short of what would
have been the Seegers’ 70th wedding anniversary.
