Malcolm Campbell, a longtime publishing executive for national music publications including SPIN, Blender, the Fader and Rolling Stone, died on April 29 at his home in City Island, New York. Campbell, 61, had been battling a recurrence of pancreatic cancer that had first been identified the previous year.
“With heavy hearts, we announce the loss of our beloved Malcolm Campbell, who passed away peacefully at home on April 29th, 2021 at 10 pm,” read an update on the GoFundMe page set up by friends of Campbell’s on behalf of his wife Charlene to help pay for medical bills. “He was surrounded by his family and CC, his loyal dog by his side,” the note continued. “There are no words to describe the devastation that is felt by all. Malcolm impacted the lives of countless individuals, friends, and family.”

A blustery Christmas Eve kept some people away from Balboa Park Thursday afternoon, and while many of the 40 or so studios were closed, there were some artists working on their crafts at the Spanish Village Art Center.
Just after lunchtime and before a light rain hit the colorful courtyard, glass blower Andy Cohn drew small crowds of people, mostly couples and one family with a toddler, who watched closely as she used one of her three kilns to heat up glass that she then shaped into a vase.
The process can take about 45 minutes about 20 minutes less for her to create a glass cup, one of her other popular items.
