MRS. GWENDOLYN C. CARTER

LOVELOCK(AP)— Gwendolyn Celia Carter, publisher of the Lovelock Review-Miner and the Nevada Rancher, died Monday in Portland, Ore., after a long battle with breast cancer. She was 57.

Carter was born in Portland and started her news career in Oregon. She worked for a newspaper and a television station there before moving to Nevada, where she held jobs at the Humboldt Sun in Winnemucca and the Review-Miner.

Carter, who was involved in all aspects of the publication business, purchased the Review-Miner in 1991 and acquired the Nevada Rancher in 1999.

She earned numerous Nevada Press Association awards over the years for her photographic and journalistic work.

Carter lived in Lovelock for 20 years. During that time, she and her late husband, Lawrence, farmed and raised their three sons. She was involved in many local service organizations.

In 2006, Carter moved to Portland to be near her family, continuing to work on her Nevada publications despite failing health.
