Dr. Mathilde Krim, Hero, Mentor, and Warrior Against AIDS, Dies at 91

http://www.towleroad.com/2018/01/362093/

Wrote activist Peter Staley on Facebook: “My greatest AIDS hero died a few hours ago. Dr. Mathilde Krim, founder of amfAR, warrior against homophobia and AIDS-related stigma, dedicated defender of science and public health, and mother-figure and mentor to countless activists, will leave a deep hole in the continued fight against AIDS — a fight she dedicated her life to. She as 91.”
