Broadway star Elizabeth Franz has died at the age of 84, her husband has confirmed.
The Tony Award-winning actor had been diagnosed with cancer.
Her husband Christopher Pelham told The New York Times that she died as a result of the disease and a “severe reaction” she suffered from the treatment.
She died at home on November 4 in Woodbury, Connecticut, reports The Sun.
Franz is best known for playing Linda Loman in a 1999 Broadway revival of Arthur Miller’s Death of a Salesman.
It was this role that earned her a Tony Award and solidified her name among other Broadway greats.
That production scooped four awards, including the one given to Franz for best featured actor in a play.

Miller himself praised the actor saying she “discovered in the role the basic underlying powerful protectiveness, which comes out as fury, and that in the past, in every performance I know of, was simply washed out”.
