Various of Richardson on the red carpet\u003cbr/\u003eNatasha Richardson, a gifted and precocious heiress to acting royalty whose career highlights included the film \"Patty Hearst\" and a Tony-winning performance in a stage revival of \"Cabaret,\" died on Wednesday at age 45 after suffering a head injury during a beginners' ski lesson.\u003cbr/\u003eAlan Nierob, the Los Angeles-based publicist for Richardson's husband Liam Neeson, confirmed her death in a written statement.\u003cbr/\u003e\"Liam Neeson, his sons (Micheal, 13, and 12-year-old Daniel), and the entire family are shocked and devastated by the tragic death of their beloved Natasha,\" the statement said. \"They are profoundly grateful for the support, love and prayers of everyone, and ask for privacy during this very difficult time.\"\u003cbr/\u003eThe statement did not give details on the cause of death for Richardson, who suffered a head injury and fell on a beginner's trail during a private ski lesson at the luxury Mont Tremblant ski resort in Quebec. \u003cbr/\u003eSeemingly fine after the fall, about an hour later she complained that she didn't feel well.\u003cbr/\u003eShe was hospitalised on Tuesday in Montreal and later flown to a hospital in New York, where family members had been seen coming and going.\u003cbr/\u003eVanessa Redgrave, Richardson's mother, arrived in a car with darkened windows and was taken through a garage when she arrived at the Lenox Hill Hospital on Manhattan's Upper East Side about 5 p.m. (2100GMT) on Wednesday. \u003cbr/\u003eAn hour earlier, Richardson's sister, Joely, arrived alone and was swarmed by the media as she entered through the back of the hospital.\u003cbr/\u003eHer family were later seen leaving the hospital in a pair of black Cadillac Escalade SUVs shortly after the announcement of Richardson's death.\u003cbr/\u003eIt was a sudden and horrifying loss for her family and friends, for the film and theatre communities, for her many fans and for both her native and adoptive countries. \u003cbr/\u003eDescended from at least three generations of actors, Richardson was a proper Londoner who came to love the noise of New York, an elegant blonde with large, lively eyes, a bright smile and a hearty laugh.\u003cbr/\u003eIf she never quite attained the acting heights of her Academy Award-winning mother, she still had enjoyed a long and worthy career. \u003cbr/\u003eAs an actress, Richardson was equally adept at passion and restraint, able to portray besieged women both confessional (Tennessee Williams' Blanche DuBois) and confined (the concubine in the futuristic horror of \"The Handmaid's Tale\").\u003cbr/\u003eLike other family members, she divided her time between stage and screen. \u003cbr/\u003eOn Broadway, she won a Tony for her performance as Sally Bowles in a 1998 revival of \"Cabaret.\" \u003cbr/\u003eShe also appeared in New York in a production of Patrick Marber's \"Closer\" (1999) as well as 2005 revival of Tennessee Williams' \"A Streetcar Named Desire,\" in which she played Blanche opposite John C. Reilly's Stanley Kowalski.\u003cbr/\u003eShe met Neeson when they made their Broadway debuts in 1993, co-starring in \"Anna Christie,\" Eugene O'Neill's drama about a former prostitute and the sailor who falls in love with her.\u003cbr/\u003eHer most notable film roles came earlier in her career. \u003cbr/\u003eRichardson played the title character in Paul Schrader's \"Patty Hearst,\" a 1988 biopic about the kidnapped heiress for which the actress became so immersed that even between scenes she wore a blindfold, the better to identify with her real-life counterpart.\u003cbr/\u003eRichardson was directed again by Schrader in a 1990 adaptation of Ian McEwan's \"The Comfort of Strangers\" and, also in 1990, starred in the screen version of Margaret Atwood's \"The Handmaid's Tale.\"\u003cbr/\u003eShe later co-starred with Neeson in \"Nell,\" with Mia Farrow in \"Widow's Peak\" and with a pre-teen Lindsay Lohan in a remake of \"The Parent Trap.\"\u003cbr/\u003eMore recent movies, none of them widely seen, included \"Wild Child,\" \"Evening\" and \"Asylum.\"\u003cbr/\u003eShe was born in London in 1963, the performing gene inherited not just from her parents, Vanessa Redgrave and director Tony Richardson, but from her maternal grandparents, Michael Redgrave and Rachel Kempson, an aunt, Lynn Redgrave, and an uncle, Corin Redgrave. \u003cbr/\u003eHer younger sister, Joely Richardson, also joined the family business.\u003cbr/\u003eFriends and family members remembered Natasha as an unusually poised child, perhaps forced to grow up early when her father left her mother in the late '60s for Jeanne Moreau. \u003cbr/\u003eRichardson always planned to act, apart from one brief childhood moment when she wanted to be a flight attendant.\u003cbr/\u003eHer screen debut came at age 4 when she appeared as a flower girl in \"The Charge of the Light Brigade,\" directed by her father, whose movies included \"Tom Jones\" and \"The Entertainer.\" \u003cbr/\u003eThe show business wand had already tapped her the year before, when she saw her mother in the 1967 film version of the Broadway show \"Camelot.\"\u003cbr/\u003eShe studied at London's Central School of Speech and Drama and was an experienced stage actress by her early 20s, appearing in \"On the Razzle,\" \"Charley's Aunt\" and \"The Seagull,\" for which the London Drama Critics awarded her most promising newcomer.\u003cbr/\u003eAlthough she never shared her mother's fiercely expressed political views, they were close professionally and acted together, most recently on Broadway to play the roles of mother and daughter in a one-night benefit concert version of \"A Little Night Music,\" the Stephen Sondheim-Hugh Wheeler musical.\u003cbr/\u003eBefore meeting up with Neeson, who called her \"Tash\", Richardson was married to theatre producer Robert Fox, whose credits include the 1985 staging of \"The Seagull\" in which his future wife appeared.\u003cbr/\u003e\u003c/span\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class='action-container flex justify-between'\u003e\n\u003cbutton aria-expanded='false' aria-label='Read more description'
