Maimie Mary Brynhilde Richardson Stephenson
The passion of her life was art. She delighted in the aesthetic and encouraged others to appreciate it, too. In the meaningfulness of the art she recognized, she found some of her life's own meaning.
Maimie Mary Brynhilde Richardson Stephenson died Tuesday, December 18, 2001, at her home. She was 97.
Mrs. Stephenson was born on March 31, 1904, to William Richardson and Mary Robson Richardson in Newcastle-on-Tyne, England.
She was home-educated in Britain by her parents until she attended Armstrong College in Newcastle-on-Tyne. She graduated with a bachelor's degree in Fine Arts.
She married William Stephenson on Christmas day, 1929, in Muggleswick Church, County Durham, England. They lived in London and Oxford before coming to the United States in 1948.
Before moving to Columbia in 1957, they lived in Chicago, Ill. and Greenwich, Conn. Mrs. Stephenson's husband, who died in 1989, was a Distinguished Research Professor in the School of Journalism at MU. The Stephenson Research Center at the university is named in honor of him. He was also the developer of Q methodology, which permits a scientific study of subjectivity and is in use around the world.
Mrs. Stephenson was a warm and friendly member of the Columbia arts community. She was the recipient of many state and local honors and recognitions for her contributions to the arts. Among them were inclusion in the 1989 book, "Show Me Missouri Women"; a State of Missouri Arts Award from the state House and Senate in 1983 and a Resolution of Recognition from the Missouri House of Representatives; and the Columbia Art League's Lifetime Retrospective Exhibit in 1998. She also, in February 2001, was the first league artist to receive the "Heart of Arts" award from the Missouri Heart Center of Columbia.
She was a volunteer teacher for art classes including, for many years, those taught at the Tipton State Prison.
An amateur painter, she both instructed and created art. She spoke of it as an important force in her life.
"It gives me an intense appreciation of things around me," Mrs. Stephenson told the Missourian in 1968. "With art, you acquire an awareness of dimension. Art intensifies one's reactions to people, places and things."
The passion she felt for art spilled over to other things in her life such as her marriage to William Stephenson. In a January 1980 issue of the Missourian, the couple were presented as "two turtle doves" for their 50th anniversary.
Mrs. Stephenson is survived by four children, Averil Schreiber of Kingston, Ill., Charles Stephenson of Washington, D.C., Mariel Stephenson of Columbia, and Richard Stephenson of Rogersville; her sister, Isabel Erda Richardson of Newcastle-on-Tyne; thirteen grandchildren; and three great-grandchildren.
