Jane Wyman, Oscar-winning movie actress and former wife of Ronald Reagan has died:
LOS ANGELES – Jane Wyman, an Academy Award winner for her performance as the deaf rape victim in “Johnny Belinda,” star of the long-running TV series “Falcon Crest” and Ronald Reagan’s first wife, died Monday morning at 93.
Wyman died at her Palm Springs home, said Richard Adney of Forest Lawn Memorial Park and Mortuary in Cathedral City. No other details were immediately available.
Wyman’s film career spanned from the 1930s, including “Gold Diggers of 1937,” to 1969’s “How to Commit Marriage,” co-starring Bob Hope and Jackie Gleason. From 1981 to 1990 she played Angela Channing, a Napa Valley winery owner who maintained her power with a steely will on CBS’ “Falcon Crest.”
Her career spanned six decades, winning her four Oscar nominations (one win) and numerous other awards. She has two stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame—one for movies, one for television. She was one of the last remnants of the Golden Age of Hollywood glamour. Now two of those few remaining are Olivia de Havilland and Joan Fontaine.
