Nancy Klein Maguire

Nancy Klein Maguire, PhD became a widow in 2015, after a fifty-year marriage. Since then, her work has focused on the experience and the transcendence of dying, death, and grief. Her twenty-six month death vigil gave her the archive and insight to write The Monk’s Widow. Since 1981, Maguire’s professional home has been the Folger Shakespeare library in Washington DC.
