There are some performers whose career is so indelible that we believe that they are immortal. The truth is that no one lives forever and we all go at some point.
The legendary actress Angela Lansbury passed away on Tuesday. This star of stage and screen (big and small) has been in our collective cultural lives for as long as many of us can remember.
Most notably, she played Jessica Fletcher in the iconic 1980s television show Murder, She Wrote and was the voice of Mrs. Potts in the 1991 animated film, Beauty and the Beast. I remember watching both as a child and feeling as if she was just a natural who spoke to the audience, regardless of the role she played.
She was 96. May her memory be a blessing. Z”L
Yeah, was one of those talented actors who worked slightly under the radar who did some amazing performances. RIP, indeed.
