Curry Café: A Life in Harmony – Remembering Alice Wildermuth O’Sullivan


Listen Later

In this episode of Curry Café, hosts Ray Gary and Rick McNamer talk with Robert O’Sullivan, who shares the remarkable life and legacy of his late wife, Alice Wildermuth O’Sullivan. A prodigious musician from childhood, Alice’s talents spanned classical, jazz, and African American spirituals. Despite her musical success, Alice chose an unconventional path to law, becoming a top expert in workers’ compensation and earning recognition as a Northern California Super Lawyer. Beyond her careers in music and law, Alice was a dedicated advocate for social justice, an accomplished gardener, and a watercolor artist. Her life was marked by creativity, professionalism, and a commitment to community, as highlighted by memorable stories of her resilience, including a Carnegie Hall performance and her 51-year marriage to Robert.
