Death of Ruthe Deskin’s Daughter
I was so sad to learn about the death of Terry Gialketsis, the daughter of Las Vegas journalist Ruthe Deskin. Lance & I met with Terry a few years ago while at UNLV. She was so helpful and shared great information about her mother.
Ruthe started her career as a women’s page editor before becoming becoming the assistant to Hank Greenspun at the Las Vegas Sun. She wrote the front page column: Memo to Hank.
Our article “Where She Stands: Ruthe Deskin and Her Place in the City of Bright Lights and Bigger Personalities After 50 years at the Las Vegas Sun,” should come out this month.
