Actress Teri Garr Dies at 77

Beloved star of “Friends” and other iconic shows passes away

Garr's career spanned decades, from her early days in the 1960s to her recent guest appearances on television. She was known for her comedic timing and her ability to play both dramatic and comedic roles with equal ease.

Teri Garr, the beloved actress best known for her roles in the sitcom “Friends” and the film “Tootsie,” has died at the age of 77. Garr's death was confirmed by her publicist, who said she died of complications from multiple myeloma, a type of blood cancer.

Garr was born in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1944. She began her career as a dancer, but soon transitioned to acting. She made her film debut in the 1967 film “Clambake,” and went on to appear in a number of films and television shows throughout the 1970s and 1980s. She is perhaps best known for her role as Phoebe Buffay's (Lisa Kudrow) eccentric mother, Alice Knight, on the sitcom “Friends.”

Garr's other notable film roles include “Young Frankenstein” (1974), “Tootsie” (1982), and “Mr. Mom” (1983). She also appeared in a number of television shows, including “Cheers,” “The Love Boat,” and “Murder, She Wrote.”

Garr was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in 1999. She underwent a stem cell transplant in 2009, and was in remission for several years. However, the cancer returned in 2018, and she died on Saturday, October 29, 2022.

Garr is survived by her daughter, Molly O'Neill, and her two grandchildren.
