A true icon has passed away............
www.nndb.com... Click for a bio......
Shelley Winters, the forceful, outspoken star who graduated from blond bombshell parts to dramas, winning Academy Awards as supporting actress in
"The Diary of Anne Frank" and "A Patch of Blue," has died. She was 85.
Winters died of heart failure early Saturday at The Rehabilitation Centre of Beverly Hills, her publicist Dale Olson said. She had been hospitalized
in October after suffering a heart attack.
The actress sustained her long career by repeatedly reinventing herself. Starting as a nightclub chorus girl, advanced to supporting roles in New York
plays, then became famous as a Hollywood sexpot.

I want to post every detail of her accomplishments but I'd have to violate the T&C to do that, so here's the link to the Internet Movie Data Base
for her page.

She played so many roles in her life and that body of work will last for a long time.
It's just sad to see the body and soul that did that work has failed.
Her passing will be felt by many, but she will never be forgotten.......
