Actress Natasha Richardson Has Died at Age 45

A sad end to this story: Actress Natasha Richardson died today, her family announced in a statement. Richardson suffered head trauma Monday while skiing in Canada.

It sounds as if it was known when she was hospitalized in Canada that her situation was grave, and her family decided to bring her to New York to give her family a chance to say goodbye to her. The decision was made today to take her off life support. The New York Times has a brief obituary of Natasha Richardson tonight; they'll probably have a more complete one up by tomorrow.
