Dorothy Davis Stuck, a pioneering Arkansan newspaper publisher, businesswoman and activist, died Thursday in Little Rock at the age of 100.
Her career as an advocate for journalism, the desegregation of schools and the professional advancement of women earned her widespread admiration and honors throughout Arkansas. Dorothy suffered a fall in early June, and while she fought the good fight, she was unable to recover, her longtime friend and business partner Nan Snow wrote to Arkansas Press Women, of which Stuck was a co-founder. At her request, there will be no memorial or burial service. But I know how much she valued the love and friendship you always extended to her. She lived a 100-year beautiful life.
