Death[edit]

Barbara Bergmann died by suicide at her home in Bethesda, Maryland on 5 April 2015.[14] She was a longtime member of and major donor to Compassion & Choices - the nation's oldest and largest end-of-life choice advocacy organization that has secured Medical Aid in Dying for terminally ill, mentally competent adults in 11 states to date. She is survived by her son, David Martin Bergmann, and her daughter, Sarah Nellie Bergmann, as well as three grandchildren. Her husband, Fred H. Bergmann, a microbiologist at the National Institutes of Health, whom she married in 1965, died in 2011.[2]


The International Association for Feminist Economics reported via social media that they were "saddened to learn of the recent death of Barbara Bergmann"[15] and urged people to honor her memory by donating to the Barbara Bergmann Fellowship Fund.[16]
