R.I.P. Jeanne Cooper

Legendary Soap Opera Actress Jeanne Cooper passed away Wednesday after being hospitalized for an unspecified illness. She was 84. Jeanne is best known for playing Katherine Chancellor on The Young and the Restless since 1973. She was born in California, and got her start in local theater before getting her big break in film in 1953 with The Redhead from Wyoming starring Maureen O'Hara. She also worked alongside Tony Curtis in The Boston Strangler, as well as Frank Sinatra in Tony Rome. Jeanne was married to Harry Bernson for 30 years. The couple divorced but had three children: Actor Corbin Bernson, Caren and Collin. Our thoughts and prayers are with her family.
