I recently wrote a column about a reunion of Herald Examiner photographers only to discover that one of them, Anne Knudsen, had died the day before the column ran. She referred to having “chemo hair” during the panel but I had no idea of her long battle with cancer.

I’m not aware of an online obituary yet, but the San Francisco Chronicle did a nice feature in January on Anne and her 15-year-old daughter, Courtney.

Here’s a recording of her comments at the reunion.
