The indomitable Elaine Stritch passed away Thursday morning. She was 89.
Though today she is perhaps most recognizable as Jack Donaghy’s mother on 30 Rock, Stritch is best known for her theater work which netted her five Tony nominations throughout her decades-long career. She was also nominated for eight Emmys, winning three, including one in 2007 for her role on 30 Rock. Stritch was also nominated for a Grammy in 2005 for, ironically enough, Best Spoken Word Album for Children.
