Angela Lansbury, award-winning star of films like "The Manchurian Candidate," TV's "Murder She Wrote" and Broadway musical "Sweeney Todd," died Tuesday. She was 96. Lansbury was a force in the entertainment business for a career that spanned eight decades and garnered her an Oscar, five Tonys and 18 Emmy nominations, although she never won one for CBS's "Murder." “The children of Dame Angela Lansbury are sad to announce that their mother died peacefully in her sleep at home in Los Angeles at 1:30 a.m. today, Tuesday, October 11, 2022, just five days shy of her 97th birthday," her family said in a statement.
