The actress’ career spanned more than six decades.
Actress Diane Ladd died on Monday. She was 89.
The three-time Oscar nominee’s death was announced by her daughter, actress Laura Dern.
“She was the greatest daughter, mother, grandmother, actress, artist and empathetic spirit that only dreams could have seemingly created,” Dern wrote. “We were blessed to have her. She is flying with her angels now.”
Ladd began her career as a theater actor, marrying fellow stage star Bruce Dern in 1960. Ladd’s ex-husband called the late actress “funny, clever [and] gracious” in a statement to Us Weekly.
