Amanda Foley Burbank, born in Pound Ridge, New York to Frank and Beverly Foley, died peacefully at home holding her husband Mark’s hand on March 18, 2024 in Stowe, Vermont at age 52, after a bruising and valiant battle with cancer. 

Amanda was a renowned location manager for some of New York’s most iconic TV shows, including “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel”, “Boardwalk Empire”, and “The Get Down”. Her love for art and architecture, and her ability to envision a scene within a place, was a gift she shared with millions.

Amanda went to Stoneleigh-Burnham, graduated from Fordham University, and honed her natural talent at the American Film Institute in Los Angeles. From an early age, she served as an unsurpassed family movie producer and photographer, bringing the Foley family closer through her memory-making magic. 

She is survived by her beloved daughter Frances (Frankie), husband Mark, stepdaughter Ella, mother Beverly, father Frank, stepmother Joan, siblings Katie, Spencer, and Sarah, and stepbrother David. Her dogs Albus and Cherry will continue to receive a bounty of love. She is survived as well by many dear cousins, aunts, uncles, nieces, and nephews, in addition to all the people she met who connected with her patented biggest, brightest smile in the world. She made friends wherever she went and brought out the best in them with her positivity and ferocious support.

People who loved her, and whom she loved twice as hard, all hold precious memories of Amanda’s zest for life, indefatigable spirit, and boundless creativity.

To honor her memory, in lieu of flowers, donations can be made to a college fund for her daughter Frances Adele Burbank, https://gofund.me/9cf225a5
