UNDATED (AP) -- A funeral is planned for later this week for Lynn Redgrave. She lost her battle with breast cancer and died Sunday night at her home in Connecticut. She was 67. It was the movie "Georgy Girl" in 1966 that introduced the world to Lynn Redgrave and got her the first of two Oscars nominations. Her second Oscar nomination was for the 1998 film "Gods and Monsters." She was nearly unrecognizable in that role as a Hungarian housekeeper. Lynn Redgrave also focused on the stage. And, in a 1998 interview with AP Radio, she said she loved the Redgrave family business, saying she adored "being an actor and living in somebody's skin, briefly, for a bit." Lynn Redgrave was born in England but she became an American citizen in the late 1990s.(AP Photo/Tina Fineberg, file)
