Obituary of Caitlin Sanders

Caitlin Elizabeth Sanders

May 22, 1991 - December 21, 2022

Caitlin Sanders, the daughter of Lamar and Veronica Sanders, was a lifetime Greenwich Village resident, although her travels were almost as extensive as her years on this earth.  She received an I.B. degree from the United Nations School in 2009 and graduated with a B.F.A. degree from New York University in 2013.  Caitlin loved to travel, having visited, or lived in twelve different countries on three different continents in the course of her short life. She had a passion for languages, specifically Spanish, in which she was fluent, and Russian, in which she was nearly fluent. To call her multi-talented doesn’t do justice to the range of her artistic versatility; her drawing talents were evident since childhood, and her acting ability was demonstrated in numerous award-winning student films as well as theatrical performances. At NYU she demonstrated an impressive proficiency in photography, writing, directing, and cinematography. After graduating from NYU in 2013, she moved to Buenos Aires, Argentina, where she worked as a freelance photographer and illustrator. She moved back to New York in 2019.  Caitlin’s talents were prodigious, her love of life and adventure, enormous, and she will be missed by everyone she ever knew.
