500K for Katie Reider

sequence by photographer CHRIS RADY

Scroll through to see more of 30-year-old singer songwriter Katie Reider from January 2006 until May of 2008 ->
In February of 2006 Singer/Songwriter Katie Reider developed a rare tumor in her upper left jaw that progressed into her skull base, ate into her face, left her blind in one eye, robbed her of her voice and ability to perform, before taking her life on July 14, 2008 at the age of 30.

For over 10 years singer/songwriter Katie Reider (pronounced RIDER) has inspired the hearts of thousands with her music and genuine personality.
Just as she was reaching the peak of her music career Katie developed a rare Myofibroblastic Inflammation Tumor that ate into the left side of her face, took away her voice, sight in one eye, and her ability to perform, before
ultimately taking her life on July 14, 2008 at the age of 30.

500Kin365.org, was launched on May 23, 2008 with the help of Katie Reider's loyal fanbase to introduce 500,000 people in 365 days to Katie Reider, her music and her story as she continued to undergo treatment for the rare tumor, that ultimately took away her life, but not her will to live.
