Diane Keaton, the Oscar-winning actress known for a prolific career in uplifting comedies, a quirky sense of fashion, and a penchant for drinking red wine with ice cubes, has died at the age of 79. A family spokesperson confirmed the actress' death in California to People; no other details were provided, and the family has asked for privacy at this time.
After studying acting at Neighborhood Playhouse in New York City, Keaton was cast as the understudy for the character of Sheila in the original Broadway production of Hair in 1968. The following year, she starred in Woody Allen's comedic stage play Play it Again, Sam, which earned her a Tony Award nomination for a Best Featured Actress in a Play. ...
In 1977, Keaton embodied the self-deprecating, tomboyish eponymous role in Allen's Annie Hall, which he wrote loosely based on her. The film was a box office hit and earned Keaton the Oscar for Best Actress.
