Jerome Liebling


JEROME LIEBLING,
April 16, 1924 – July 27, 2011

A work of many – this, perhaps, is the
most wonderful thing about any literary magazine. E pluribus unum. The Massachusetts Review has been exceptionally fortunate in
the caliber of those who have committed their energies to our cause. An MR editor and contributor for over forty years, Jerry Liebling was among the very best of us, and his passing is a loss which cannot be redeemed. The gifts given to our pages over the years – his cover portraits, his breadth of vision, his sense of place – we’d seen nothing like it before, and hardly
hope to see it again. In his memory, we ask you simply to revisit his work. To meditate for a moment on the humanity he brought before you.
