Death and legacy

McCormick died in New York on May 29, 1954, and is buried at Gate of Heaven cemetery in Hawthorne, NY. Her death was reported on the front page of the paper. According to reporter Julia Edwards, in the chapter 'Anne O'Hare McCormick and the Changing Times' in her book ''Women of the World: The Great Foreign Correspondents'', McCormick "established a new standard for commentary on world affairs. Displacing generations of armchair pundits, she explored a world in conflict to answer the question - Why?" McCormick was modest about her journalistic achievements. “Crises were popping all over Europe at the time, so it isn’t strange that I bumped into a few,” she said. About her accomplishments and that of other contemporary newspaperwomen, she said: “We had tried hard not to talk—meaning too much—but just to sneak toward the city desk and the cable desk, and the editorial sanctum and even the publisher's office with masculine sang-froid.” She preferred to stay in the limelight, not allowing that articles be written about her and not revealing any details of her private life, anxious as she was that personal fame could interfere with “the kind of impersonal and uncolored reporting ... on which the maintenance of a free press and therefore a free society depend.” She was not an advocate for feminist causes, but did encourage women to enter professional public life and advocated for women's talents to be utilized by government and business.
