NEW YORK (Reuters) - Oscar and Tony Award winner Anne Bancroft, the husky-voiced actress immortalized as Helen Keller's teacher in "The Miracle Worker" and the seductive Mrs. Robinson in the iconic 1967 film "The Graduate," has died, her family said on Tuesday.

Bancroft, who was 73, died at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York on Monday evening of uterine cancer, according to John Barlow, a spokesman for Bancroft's husband, the comedian and director Mel Brooks

On a personal note, one of my favorite movies she appeared in was "To Be Or Not To Be" with husband Mel Brooks. I need to re-watch that one.
