Dr. Katherine “Kat” Domingo (1974-2011) was born in the Philippines and has lived in Bloomington since 1996. She earned her masters and doctoral degrees at the Jacobs School of Music.
Kat served as President of My Stroke of Insight, Inc., a company she ran with Jill Bolte Taylor, local neuroanatomist and author.
Most recently founding and directing the Bloomington Peace Choir, Kat’s lifelong passion of helping to heal the planet through music began when she was named the assistant director of the International Vocal Ensemble in 1999, for which she was appointed director in 2006. She served as a full-time faculty member of the Jacobs School for four years.
In 2004, Kat was a Fulbright Fellow in the Philippines, studying the choral music of her native country for her dissertation on Philippine nationalism and music.
Kat’s undergraduate studies were at Dartmouth College in Hanover, NH.
Kat considered her eight-year battle with breast cancer to be one of her greatest blessings, crediting the experience with providing her with a new and enhanced perspective of the importance of life’s daily miracles and encounters with people.
She is survived by Taylor, her parents Romeo and Imelda Domingo of Whiting, NJ, brother Wilbert of Shererville, IN, sister Wilma of Bridgewater, NJ, one nephew, three nieces, and many friends and chosen family.
Kat transitioned peacefully at home on March 18 and a Celebration of Life will be held at Unity of Bloomington on April 2, at 3pm. Donations can be made to the Lotus Education and Arts Foundation in memory of Kat Domingo. P.O. Box 1667, Bloomington, IN 47402 or lotusfest.org.
