Her career, she began her career, um, as I said, a- as a child, really young child actress.
Played w- i- in a movie with a big star, and that really launched her into Hero, Nashville, and in many, many other roles.
And she unfortunately was found dead, uh, in an apartment at just age 36 in Greenville, South Carolina.
And we don't know all the details yet, but we know enough clues to give some insight into the dangers around fentanyl, the dangers probably around fake pills, and other things that have happened to too, too many people, too, too tragic when lives cut too short.
So wh- what we know, we, we know what the coroner has reported, and basically that is she was, uh, pronounced dead.

She did recently release a memoir, which she was very candid about her troubles, uh, with addiction, with mental illness.
