The Heartbreaking Death Of That '70s Show Star Tanya Roberts

Depending on when you were born, you might remember actress Tanya Roberts as Bond girl Stacey Sutton in 1985's A Vew to a Kill alongside Roger Moore. Otherwise you'll remember her as Julie Rogers in the 1970s classic Charlie's Angels, a role she held from 1980 to 1981, after taking over from the departing Shelley Hack (via AP News).  More recently, Roberts played Midge Pinciotti — Donna's mom in That '70s Show — from 1998 to 2004 (via IMDb). Roberts' movie and TV career spanned decades, with acting credits from 1976 to 2005, including her appearances in 1980s fantasy flicks like Sheena and The Beastmaster.

Roberts was born Victoria Leigh Blum, according to ABC. Before her big break, she was best known for her work as a model for brands like Clairol and headache reliever Excedrin (via Showbiz Cheat Sheet). The native New Yorker met screenwriter Barry Roberts and the two married in 1974, eventually settling in Los Angeles to pursue acting. It was ultimately Barry's illness that prompted Tanya to walk away from Hollywood, taking her last major role in Barbershop in 2005, Us Weekly reports. Barry died in 2006, and the couple had no children.
