I'm afraid I only know her from a mention on an ERASURE B-SIDE and I won't be the only person to think OH NO LAURIE ANDERSON DIED

Now this is a sad one. She was HUGE when I was a kid.

I imagine much bigger news in the US than in the UK. Here I would guess that the majority of people who did know her did so unfortunately as the wife/ex-wife of Burt Reynolds rather than any of her own achievements.
