Doris “Tanta” Dungey, 1961-2008
The well-respected blogger, Tanta — the family nickname Doris Dungey used to sign her posts at Calculated Risk — died yesterday. Tanta was an ex-mortgage banker who developed deep expertise in the field before giving up her job in 2006 in order to be treated for ovarian cancer.
