VETERAN journalist and author Beth Day Romulo, widow of former United Nations General Assembly president Carlos P. Romulo has died, her granddaughter, Maritina, announced on Facebook on Friday.
She was 98 years old.
Mrs. Romulo was born in Fort Wayne, Indiana, United States on May 25, 1924. She was previously an associate editor of the Manila Bulletin and wrote numerous books, including Grizzlies in their Backyard and Inside the Palace: The Rise and Fall of Ferdinand and Imelda Marcos.
Her last book, The Writer, the Lover and the Diplomat, where she documented her love story with Carlos P. Romulo, whom she married in 1957, was co-authored with fellow veteran journalist David Wyatt and was released in New York in 2015.
"I'm sad to announce the passing of a remarkable woman: Beth Day Romulo. She was 88-years-old when we teamed up to co-write her life story," Wyatt wrote on Facebook. "She told me then she hoped to live long enough to see her life story in print. She was 91 when we finished writing the book. And she was able to read excerpts in person to a standing-room-only crowd at the first book launch in Manila. In her lifetime, Beth wrote 29 nonfiction books. She also wrote three columns a week on global affairs until she was well into her nineties."
