Remembering actress Natasha Richardson

I feel compelled to write about the death of Tony award-winning actress Natasha Richardson, daughter of Vanessa Redgrave, who died Wednesday from head trauma after what seemed like a minor skiing accident. (View a photo gallery of Natasha Richardson here).



I remember Richardson from Disney's 1998 remake of Parent Trap where she starred opposite Dennis Quaid and Lindsay Lohan. There was just something so ... likable about her character. And it's a movie that comes on TV all the time that I don't mind watching over and over. In Maid in Manhattan with Jennifer Lopez, Richardson played the snobby hotel guest who caused problems for Lopez's character. She wasn't that likeable in that movie, of course.

Richardson and husband actor Liam Neeson had two sons. We send her family our condolences.
