Her passing marks a loss for both environmental reporting and the Kennedy family.

Tatiana Schlossberg, a journalist and author known for her work on climate change, has died after a battle with a rare and aggressive form of leukemia. She was 34 years old.

Schlossberg detailed her diagnosis and treatment in a deeply personal essay published in The New Yorker in November. The piece recounted the challenges of navigating chemotherapy, bone marrow transplants, and motherhood following her diagnosis shortly after the birth of her daughter. Schlossberg’s writing starkly captured the fear, physical toll, and sense of injustice that accompanied her illness, describing how it struck someone young, healthy, and, as she wrote, “one of the healthiest people she knew.”
