Taos historian Vicente Martinez dies at 74
Vicente Montaner Martinez, 74, Taos historian and curator, died February 24 after a 20 year battle with emphysema while in Washington state with his son Antonio and daughter in law Ivonne Rivera Martinez. He helped found Plaza Photo and worked as a curator at Millicent Rogers Museum, served on Verde Valley School board, and aided landmark listings in Taos. He was born February 26, 1942, and remembered for his wit and deep cultural ties to Northern New Mexican art and history. A rosary and funeral Mass were planned at Our Lady of Guadalupe Church with donations urged to Millicent Rogers Museum or Verde Valley School.
