Set designer Mary Kate Golding, aged 34, known for her work on popular TV series such as “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel” and “Goosebumps,” was tragically discovered deceased at her residence in Queens, New York. Authorities were alerted to the scene following a 911 call just past midnight. Upon their arrival, Golding was found with a stab wound to her back and was declared deceased by a representative of the New York Police Department.
Several hours later, around 6:39 a.m. ET, law enforcement responded to a separate report of an unconscious man in the vicinity of Astoria Park, also in Queens. The man, estimated to be between 30 and 35 years old, was pronounced dead at the location. Reports suggest that the deceased man was Golding’s spouse, identified as Joseph Azzaretto, with sources indicating that the circumstances are being probed as a potential murder-suicide.
The investigation into the incident remains ongoing, with no additional information currently disclosed. Golding’s professional credits include serving as a set decorator for the initial six episodes of the first season of Amazon Prime Video’s “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.” Her portfolio also encompasses contributions to projects like “The Big Sick,” “Gotham,” “The Undoing,” “The Flight Attendant,” “Hawkeye,” and more recently, “Goosebumps.” She was slated to work on the upcoming film “Deep Cuts.”
