Theresa Duncan, filmmaker and blogger, took her own life last week in New York, according to LA Observed.

Duncan was a pioneer in CD-ROM games for girls. She had been directing her first film, This For That, in New York this summer, which was part of a deal with Fox Searchlight.

Duncan and her partner, artist Jeremy Blake (who is missing as of this posting), were regular party guests at this FBLA editor's home--always amusing, amazingly clad, and bearing unusual and unexpected gifts. Theresa had a unique visual sensitivity, and would frequently point out stunning juxtapositions of images.

Duncan also wrote about perfume, and the fragrance forums are mourning her.
