You Are Not Dead, Yet.

Marsha Dalton studied and taught philosophy at a prestigious university.

Over many years she developed a philosophical framework with a foundational idea that free agency could not exist. She wrote several books on the topic, was a guest on prestigious radio programs and was generally praised for her ideas that challenged fundamental religious and societal norms.

Later in her life, she was diagnosed with a terminal illness and chose not to receive treatment, fearing that doing so might undermine her work and ideas about agency. She worried that peers and students might question that she did have the freedom to choose her path in life.

Marsha is dead.
