Mary Ellen Woods

In Memoriam, 2022 – 2024

Mary Ellen was a reformed Corporate Information Technology leader. She completed the Inspired Leadership Initiative (ILI) Fellowship and was working on her next passion – helping young people get to and through their college education. She wrote in prose but loved the work of the Chicago Poetry Center. If stranded on a deserted island, one poet she chose for company was Shakespeare, and if she had started a band, she wished to name it MEW’s band of Merry Makers.
