Victoria Donohoe (March 21, 1929 – November 21, 2018) was an artist, art critic and historian who wrote for papers[1] such as The Catholic Standard & Times[2][3] and The Philadelphia Inquirer.
She did not drive a car or own a television, preferring to travel by public transit and avoid the use of telephones, answering machines, and computers.
[2][7] She then went to Florence, Italy, where she attended Pope Pius XII Institute-Graduate School of Fine Arts for Women[6] at Villa Schifanoia[8] in 1953.
Described as "grace personified", she wrote both perceptively and frankly about the artists, works and events she reviewed, but phrased her criticisms gently.
"[1] She was active in community events such as Narberth Borough Council meetings, and served on the Committee of Sacred Liturgy of the Philadelphia Catholic Archdiocese.
