NEW YORK (AP) β A Tony Award-winning actress of stage and film who became a muse to playwright Edward Albee has died in New York. Marian Seldes was 86.
Her brother Timothy Seldes says she died peacefully at her home on Monday after an extended illness.
Marian Seldes was nominated for a Tony five times, for her performances in “A Delicate Balance,” ”Father’s Day,” ”Deathtrap,” ”Ring Round the Moon” and “Dinner at Eight.” She won in 1967 for “A Delicate Balance” and won her second Tony in 2010 for lifetime achievement.
Her collaboration with Albee included “The Play About the Baby,” ”Tiny Alice,” ”Father’s Day” and “Three Tall Women,” which won the 1994 Pulitzer Prize for drama.
