Anne Meara Passes Away At Age 85
Anne Meara, comedy legend, wife of Jerry Stiller, mom to Ben Stiller, passed away on Saturday.
She was 85, and no word on the cause of death...and what a career. She and Jerry were a comedy team called "Stiller and Meara", and appeared on The Tonight Show as well as The Ed Sullivan Show (36 times!).
I remember Anne best for playing Cynthia Nixon's mother-in-law on "Sex and the City". She also appeared in Ben's movies "Night at the Museum", "Zoolander", and "Heavy Weights".
She also voiced Winnie in last year's "Planes: Fire and Rescue".
