The world of Hollywood has lost a shining star as beloved actress Barbara Rush has passed away at the age of 97. Rush, who was known for her roles in both film and television, passed on Easter Sunday according to her daughter, senior Fox News correspondent Claudia Cowan.
The news of her passing has left many in the industry saddened, as Rush's career spanned an impressive seven decades and she shared the screen with some of Hollywood's biggest names, including Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Paul Newman, and Marlon Brando.
Cowan shared the heartbreaking news with Fox News Digital, saying, "My wonderful mother passed away peacefully at 5:28 this evening. I was with her this morning and know she was waiting for me to return home safely to transition. It's fitting she chose to leave on Easter as it was one of her favorite holidays and now, of course, Easter will have a deeper significance for me and my family."
Rush made her debut in the 1950s in the comedy film The Goldbergs, but it was her role in the science-fiction horror film It Came from Outer Space that catapulted her to stardom. She even went on to win a Golden Globe for her performance in the film.
Aside from her film work, Rush was also beloved for her role in the soap opera Peyton Place, for which she won a Golden Globe for Most Promising Female Newcomer. She also starred in other major films such as The Young Philadelphians, The Young Lions, and Robin and the 7 Hoods.
