From a New York Times obit by Richard Sandomir headlined “Julia Scully, Influential Photography Editor and Memoirist, Dies at 94”:
Julia Scully, who after 20 years as the editor of Modern Photography magazine wrote an acclaimed memoir about her Depression-era childhood, when her mother put her and her sister in an orphanage before moving the family into a roadhouse in a remote part of Alaska, died at her home in Manhattan.
Her death was confirmed by Jana Martin, a daughter of Ms. Scully’s companion, Harold Martin, a photographer.
