She had worked for GQ, Vogue and DNR during her career.
Priscilla Whitley-Matthews, who had been friends with Altman Brown since high school, wrote: “From freshman year in high school until our last conversation, only days ago, Pammie Sue was the funniest person I’ve ever known. Just today I’ve thought of 10 things we could laugh about. She was my truest friend…there were ups and downs, through these 60 years, but we were never far away from each other.
Richard Buckley, a fashion journalist who worked with Altman Brown at DNR, where he served as European editor before joining WWD, said, “I know the phrase ‘full of life’ is a cliche, but of all the people in my life, Pamela was the one who was always the most full of life. She made working together a celebration and a party no matter how serious the assignment. She once told me, ‘Remember, breathe in and breathe out.…It’s all we get.’ She believed that and lived each moment to the fullest.
Altman Brown, known as Pammie to her friends, grew up in Hillsdale, N.J., according to an obituary prepared by Whitley-Matthews. She moved to New York City in 1970 after college and worked as assistant fashion editor at True Magazine. She then joinedand worked her way up to fashion editor, at which point “her life became immersed in the New York fashion world. Each year she attended Fashion Week in Paris and Milan, while countless photo shoots took her throughout Europe and beyond.
Following her departure from editorial, she opened Altman Communications, a public relations agency. However, once cancer began to impact her life, she relocated to Florida in search of a quieter existence. “Pamela was funny. Her mind grasped the funny. Clever, smart, and sharp, her humor drew others to her,” Whitley-Matthews said. “So many branded her the funniest person they ever knew. Though, sometimes a little wickedness was thrown in, oh you better be on your toes.”Donations can be made in her name to the National Breast Cancer Foundation, P.O. Box 676910, Dallas, TX 75267-6910. And sympathy notes can be mailed to Daniel Brown, 1427 Hollyberry Place, The Villages, Fla., 32162.
