April 13, 1944 — Oct. 29, 2023: Lavina Fielding Anderson, a “titan of modern Mormonism” who had a deep impact on Latter-day Saint scholarship for decades, remained a believer to the end.
She died early Sunday of respiratory failure secondary to pulmonary hypertension, son Christian Anderson said. She was 79.” scholars and activists disciplined by the Utah-based faith for “apostasy.” Five, including Anderson, were excommunicated. She is the second of that group to die after In subsequent years, the prodigious editor amassed an impressive array of clients and publications. She was on the Editorial Advisory Committee of Signature Books; co-editor of the Case Reports of the Mormon Alliance and the Association for Mormon Letters Annual; and a copy editor for the Journal of Mormon History; Dialogue: A Journal of Mormon Thought; and The Review of Higher Education.
“As a mother, Lavina was relentlessly focused on personal growth,” Christian recalled in an email. “This took the form of teaching me to read before kindergarten, assigning me hours of extra homework during summer break and other vacations, and sending me to magnet programs for K-12 even if they were in dangerous schools.”
