58, that's far too young. My thoughts go out to her family and friends.

Woah John Richardson passed too.

Too bad he lost his battle with Covid.

Let's not forget that he was also the longtime abuser of brilliant vocalist Ronnie Spector!

Fuck, shit. It's not like I was a rabid fan of his, but I distinctly remember him always being on in the early 2000's and catching him on air. A great interviewer to say the least.
He had a fantastic interview with Tyler the Creator and Eric Andre:

Larry was TV icon in his own right. Shame to see him go, and of Covid no less.

Just found out one of my co-workers used to know her. She was her hairdresser's personal assistant, and Leachman would talk to her a lot while getting her hair done.
