Remembering Anne White, Celebrating Her Legacy

Anne White, June 1937-December 9, 2025

Livable Tarrytowns lost a great friend earlier this month when Anne White passed away.

Anne was a longtime advocate of “complete streets”–at least from the time she moved to St. Paul, Minnesota (in 2003). A former professional photographer and, beginning at the age of 80, a writer of poetry, Anne relocated to Sleepy Hollow in 2016. Over the last few years, Anne was a constant, enthusiastic, and tireless presence at Livable Tarrytowns gatherings. The building of bridges between advocates/activists and village officials was a chief concern of Anne’s.

Anne’s commitment to environmental sustainability and safe streets for all will continue to inspire the work of Livable Tarrytowns. In this way, and in many others, she lives on.

To learn more about Anne, please see these tributes to her in The Hudson Independent and on the website of Sustainable Sleepy Hollow, for which she served as co-chair.
