This issue is dedicated in loving memory to Anne Friedberg: friend, mentor, and member of the Editorial Board, who succumbed to cancer earlier this fall. We send deep condolences to her family and colleagues.

I met Anne when she joined the Ed Board for The Quarterly Review of Film Studies (for which I was Managing Editor), and recall the combination of precision and inclusiveness that she brought to a discussion that led to re-naming the journal The Quarterly Review of Film and Video. Those discussions and several chats that followed were important influences on my scholarly trajectories, and Anne's major publications, including Window Shopping: Cinema And The Postmodern (1993) and The Virtual Window: From Alberti To Microsoft (2006), have made indelible impressions on Media Studies and several other fields as well. I remain grateful to Anne for the impact she made on our field, and on me personally. She will be greatly missed
