She played Mrs. Robinson in the film The Graduate.

A story should be published soon. It was just announced moments ago on CH TV here in Montreal.

Ahhh - sorry to hear that. She was a fabulous actress.

I read it

Says she didn't like not being known as much for The Miracle Worker (more for The Graduate because of the Oscar nod) but I'll ALWAYS remember her as Annie Sullivan. She and Patty Duke were incredible in that movie.

That's weird since she won the Oscar for The Miracle Worker.

Here's to you, Mrs. Robinson....

This is awful.

I had no idea she was sick. I really liked her in the Graduate. R.I.P. Anne.

dandelion wine · 06-07-2005, 08:22 PM

I'm shocked by this news, too. She was a very good actress and she'll be missed. Rest in peace.

What a shame. She was a very talented woman. Mel Brooks must be devistated.
