FRESNO TV NEWS REPORTER SUE ROSENSTEIN , 37, DIES
Fresno Bee, The (CA) - February 19, 1987

Sue Rosenstein , a news reporter for Channel 24, died Wednesday morning after a long battle with cancer. She was 37. A memorial service that Ms. Rosenstein wrote is planned at noon Saturday in the Cross Church. Ms. Rosenstein was a native of Los Angeles. She was a graduate of the University of California, Berkeley, where she majored in English.

Her first job in journalism was as public affairs director at a TV station in Wichita, Kan. In 1979 she moved to Channel 24 as a reporter.

She was the host of "Women's Day," a program about news of interest to women, for two years and made frequent appearances on the station's other public affairs discussion programs.

Ms. Rosenstein was a general assignment reporter most of her years at Channel 24. Recently, she had specialized in coverage of health and education issues, especially those related to cancer and cancer victims.

She also produced a number of special news series for "Newscenter" broadcasts about such subjects as rent control, tenants rights and vitamins.

Ms. Rosenstein was active in the community helping cancer victims and families of people with cancer. She shared her knowledge of journalism with students at Fresno State University, where she had lectured.

She had to leave the station for several months during her first bout with cancer. As the disease progressed, she became unable to work again last summer and did not return to the air before her death.

Just a few weeks ago, Ms. Rosenstein wrote a note to Channel 24 news assignment editor Bill Murphy in which she said, "I never realized until now what a gift it is to work for a living."

Ms. Rosenstein is survived by her father, Jerome of Burbank, and her brother, Barry of Thousand Oaks.

Lisle Funeral Home is in charge of arrangements. The family asks that any remembrance be sent to Hospice of Fresno.

Sue Rosenstein was a 1967 graduate of Burbank High School, Burbank, California. In our yearbook next to Susie's senior picture it says she was active in the following while at BHS:

Coll. Prep, ASB Recording Sec 12 grade; Exec. Council 12 grade; AFS Candidate(Finalist); Chamber Singers 12 grade; Operetta 12 grade; AFS 12 grade; CSF 10, 11 & 12 grade; Seminar Chair 12 grade. Will be majoring in philosophy at UCSC.
