sad

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/h...428779.stm

Alaina Reed Amini, best known for playing Olivia Robinson on long-running children's show Sesame Street, has died aged 63, her publicist has confirmed.

The star - previously known as Alaina Reed Hall - died Thursday at a hospital in Santa Monica after a two-year battle with breast cancer.

Her stage credits included Chicago and Hair. She also appeared in several movies, including Cruel Intentions.

She also guest-starred in various TV shows such as ER and NYPD Blue.

Reed-Amini joined the Sesame Street cast in 1976 and played a photographer and sister of the character Gordon.


Two years of suffering. So sad. sad

I thought that thread was about a neighbour at #227, so I didn't read it.

Well, I now know that she was also in a show called 227, but I'd never heard of it before. It can't ever have been broadcast over here.

Yep, same chick. I met her in 1990. VERY nice lady. Go read the original post. It mentions both 227, and Sesame Street.

I remember her on Sesame Street from when I was a kid. Very sad. May she rest in peace.
