44. I saw this breaking on my phone while at my sister's house

Oct 2022

for my nephew's birthday party. This was a real gut punch because she was such a prolific and era-spanning actress. Her passing is a great loss to the film, theater, and television industries thanks to her powerful acting in what would become iconic roles.

R.I.P. and thank you for bringing these productions to life.
