She died “peacefully” in New Rochelle (US state of New York) at the age of 93, her family announced on Wednesday (local time). She leaves behind six children, nine grandchildren and two great-grandchildren, according to the statement that was available to the German Press Agency.
Sternhagen, who won prestigious Tony awards for her stage performances in “The Good Doctor” (1974) and “The Heiress” (1995), was also a television star. In the hit series “Cheers” she played the domineering mother figure Esther Clavin, in “Sex and the City” she played the snobby Bunny MacDougal, who makes life difficult for her daughter-in-law Charlotte (Kristin Davis). She also appeared in “Emergency Room” and “The Closer”.
Sternhagen has also appeared more often in front of film cameras, for example with Sean Connery for “Outland – Planet of the Damned” (1981), in the thriller “Misery”, the comedy film “Julie & Julia” or, most recently in 2014, alongside Michael Douglas and Diane Keaton the romance “That borders on love”.
