Kathryn Kates, 'Orange is the New Black' and 'Seinfeld' actress, dead at 73

Actress Kathryn Kates, who appeared in hit TV series including "Orange is the New Black" and "Seinfeld," has died aged 73, her representatives confirmed to CNN on Wednesday.

"After a long, hard-fought battle with lung cancer, Kathryn passed away peacefully this past Saturday surrounded by her brother Josh, his wife Sue Ann and her sister Mallory. We can confirm that Kathryn was 73 years old," Headline Talent Agency said to CNN in a statement.

"Kathryn was our client for many years, and about one year ago, after finding out that the lung cancer she was treated for 20 years ago had returned, we grew even closer."

"She was incredibly brave, thoughtful, wise and loving. Kathryn approached every role she ever played, as well as her daily life with the greatest of passion. We will do our best to honor her incredible legacy. The world truly lost one of the good ones."
