Columbia Journalism School paid tribute to Beau in a statement shared after her death.

“Columbia Journalism School mourns the loss of Beau Jessup, a student in our M.S. program. We join Jessup’s family, friends and classmates in remembering her,” they said.

Beau Jessup’s hopes for journalism and theatre

With her family’s permission, Columbia University also shared an interview with Beau conducted before her death.

She spoke about wanting to combine journalism with writing for the stage.

“I want to work as a journalist and writer,” she said in the interview.

Beau described her interest in reporting on people, culture and social questions using skills she was developing at Columbia.

She highlighted journalism’s immediacy, while explaining that some subjects might be better explored through theatre.

Among her inspirations were journalists who had also written plays, including Jeff Biggers and Josh Duboff.
