Meryl F. Vladimer (August 14, 1951 – January 3, 2022)[1] was an artist, theatrical producer and political activist.
Born in New York, Vladimer began her career as a noted and critically reviewed sculptor, and was featured on the cover of Artforum magazine.
Still not satisfied artistically she left corporate Audio-Visual to do multi-media design for theater, working first at Theater for the New City and later at La MaMa Experimental Theatre Club[2] where she tried a variety of fields including stage management.
This lead her to Broadway to stage manage "Haarlem Nocturne" a musical review created by André DeShields and arranged and composed by Marc Shaiman.
Returning to La MaMa, she resumed stage managing "The Club" cabaret theater created by Ellen Stewart in the style of the original La MaMa Theater, where one was required to become a member.
