A chapter in Emmy Noether 1882–1935, 1981, pp 112-152 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract With deep dismay Emmy Noether’s friends living in America learned about her sudden passing away on Sunday, April 14. She seemed to have got well over an operation for tumor; we thought her to be on the way to convalescence when an unexpected complication led her suddenly on the downward path to her death within a few hours. She was such a paragon of vitality, she stood on the earth so firm and healthy with a certain sturdy humor and courage for life, that nobody was prepared for this eventuality. She was at the summit of her mathematical creative power; her far-reaching imagination and her technical abilities accumulated by continued experience, had come to a perfect balance; she had eagerly set to work on new problems. And now suddenly—the end, her voice silenced, her work abruptly broken off.
