Such an awful shock.
Alice Stewart was a consummate pro who made every show she was on so much BETTER.
Alice was kind, decent, hard-working and a woman whose faith sustained her.

I’m devastated by the news of Alice Stewart’s untimely passing.
We were colleagues at@CNNand on the senior advisory board of the @HarvardIOP.
You’d be hard put to find a nicer, kinder person.
She was a political pro and a wonderfully nice person to just have a conversation with on any topic.
Weve been friends going back to the 2012 campaign.
