Beautiful tribute, David. That great slogan of Shirley Chisholm’s — Unbought and Unbossed — described Kate too. She served as a signal inspiration to those coming behind her in investigative circles. And that laugh, you’re right. It could rock the room.

We all owe a lot to Kate for setting an example of how to conduct a dangerous investigation accurately and fearlessly.

I remember Kate, who also worked part-time as a hostess at Chez Panisse, for having rented out the new wave Berkeley Square for a 40th birthday-El Salvador fund-raiser. Not exactly a run-of-the-mill individual. Too bad we don't have more of them.
