Deborah Fleisher, 70

We are saddened to report that Deborah Fleisher has passed away. She had been a member of Local 655 since 1972.

Fleisher

Deborah came from a family of musicians. Her father was the pianist Leon Fleisher, and like Deborah, her brother Richard also plays harp. In fact, Deborah took her first harp lessons from her grandmother! Deborah went on to earn degrees from the Curtis Institute and Peabody. After moving to south Florida, Deborah played harp for just about everyone, including the Boca Pops, Miami City Ballet, Florida Grand Opera, Orchestra Miami, South Florida Symphony, and The Symphonia. She also taught at the University of Miami and Lynn University. She will be greatly missed.
