Dame Angela Lansbury was born on October 16, 1925, in London. Her film debut in Gaslight earned an Academy Award nomination, and she received further nominations for The Picture of Dorian Gray and The Manchurian Candidate.
Lansbury became internationally known as mystery writer Jessica Fletcher in Murder, She Wrote, which ran for 12 seasons. She was also a major Broadway performer, winning five competitive Tony Awards and receiving a Special Tony Award for lifetime achievement in 2022.
Lansbury died in Los Angeles on October 11, 2022, at age 96. The old article still described her as 91 and said she had no intention of retiring. Its speculative longevity claims, rigid diet language and assumptions about returning to work after childbirth were removed and replaced with a career-focused retrospective.
