REMEMBERING KATE O'BEIRNE - National Review's Ramesh Ponnuru: "When she became the magazine's Washington editor in 1995 her resume already included stints
at Senator Jim Buckley's office, the Reagan administration, and the Heritage Foundation. She served NR in that position for eleven years and then became president of National Review Institute for six more. ... Both her 'Bread and Circuses' column for NR and her television commentary were marked by a rare combination of a deep interest in conservative policy, psychological insight, and common sense. ... Decades of chain-smoking caught up with her last year -- vaping came too late for her - leading to an ordeal from which she shielded nearly everyone who loved her."
