Janet Huntington Brewster Career

She was noted for her work in several organizations, including serving as a trustee of Mount Holyoke College from 1949 to 1959. She had always hankered after an academic career and returned to Mount Holyoke College in 1970. She worked for nine years in its Art Museum, eventually becoming the Executive Director of the Art Advisory Committee. She traveled widely, raising over US$2m on behalf of the college. She also served on the boards of National Public Radio and the Henry Street Settlement in Greenwich Village.

In 1953, Janet and Edward reported together on the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II, and on June 21, 1957, she substituted for her husband, who was in Burma, on Person to Person. Viewers and press reviews lauded her performance, and the program was soon considered one of the best in this popular series.

In the decades following her husband's death, she was tirelessly active in furthering his legacy. She donated some of Murrow's papers to the Edward R. Murrow Center of Public Diplomacy at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University, and her own papers plus the remaining papers of her husband to Mount Holyoke College.

She died on December 18, 1998, in Needham, Massachusetts. After cremation, her ashes were scattered.
