Maureen Rupprecht (Smith), of Jackson, New Hampshire, and Biddeford Pool, Maine, passed away on July 1, 2020, at the age of 80 after a long illness. Maureen, one of the “Smith girls,” grew up in Holbrook, Massachusetts, with a goal of becoming an artist. She achieved this goal professionally and in every aspect of life, revealing the beauty in everything and person she touched. Her best tool was love and her family was her masterpiece.
Maureen graduated from Holbrook High School, where she was proud to say she was kicked out of math class. She attended the Art Institute of Boston at Lesley University (formerly known as the School of Practical Art) with a focus on design studies. After graduation, she worked for the Salinger Ad Agency during the creative revolution of the 1960s, eventually becoming art director and perfecting her ability to make a martini. After Salinger, she returned to the Art Institute of Boston to teach.
