Lynn Ramsey, on the story ‘Penny Proddow Dies’: [Jewelry historian and author] Penny Proddow was one of the most knowledgeable, articulate, and inspiring jewelry enthusiasts I have ever had the privilege of knowing and working with. Along with her wonderful business partner and co-author Marion Fasel, they took the world of fine jewelry to a new level, creating unique coffee table books with wide appeal and sharing their passion for fine jewelry every month in the pages of InStyle magazine. … Passionate, spontaneous, extemporaneous, entertaining, and rich in content, I often felt that she was “channeling” her lectures from the great fine jeweler in the sky. It was so effortless and spoken from her heart.
