Film Actress

Death of Angela Lansbury Tues Oct 11, 2022
Angela Lansbury, who enjoyed an eclectic, award-winning movie and stage career in addition to becoming America’s favorite TV sleuth in “Murder, She Wrote,” has died,
“The children of Dame Angela Lansbury are sad to announce that their mother died peacefully in her sleep at home in Los Angeles at 1:30 AM today, Tuesday, October 11, 2022,
just five days shy of her 97th birthday,” her family said in a statement.

"In addition to her three children, Anthony, Deirdre and David, she is survived by three grandchildren, Peter, Katherine and Ian, plus five great grandchildren and her brother,
producer Edgar Lansbury,"

Angela had an older half sister, Isolde , and younger twin brothers Bruce and Edgar. The family lived in Mill Hill, London during the week and at their rural farmhouse in Oxfordshire
on the weekends, until Angela's father tragically died when she was nine. Born in London, her mother, Moyna MacGill, was an actress, and father Edward Lansbury a politician. He died when
she was just nine years old, and not long after the onset of World War II the family moved to the US in 1940, settling in New York.

Lansbury studied drama before moving at her mother’s urging to Los Angeles, where she briefly worked in a department store until landing her breakthrough role as the young maid in “Gaslight,”
starring Ingrid Bergman and Charles Boyer.
