British actress Susannah York, one of the leading stars of British and Hollywood films in the late 1960s and early 1970s, has died in London at the age of 72. York reportedly died of cancer Saturday at the Royal Marsden Hospital in London.
York was nominated for an Oscar for the 1969 classic “They Shoot Horses, Don’t They?” and also starred in “A Man for All Seasons” and other classic films from that era. In 1972 York won the Best Actress award at the Cannes Film Festival.
