Members DRW50 Posted January 28, 2010 Members Share Posted January 28, 2010 I thought she was the standout in Poltergeist, she helped make the movie more than a slightly more polished version of the psychological horror shows. I really loved her on Picket Fences, she was so strong and quirky. I hated her exit. And as mentioned in the article, she was also a very early campaigner for AIDS activism, before this became as common with celebrities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted January 28, 2010 Members Share Posted January 28, 2010 I thought she died over a week ago. That's what I get for reading Perez. May she rest in peace, what an inimitable performer. She also did a handful of voices over at Hanna-Barbera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted January 28, 2010 Members Share Posted January 28, 2010 RIP Via LGBT POV: “Zelda not only lent her support to the L.A. Gay & Lesbian Center—before it was popular for celebrities to support AIDS and LGBT organizations–she volunteered to star in a groundbreaking HIV prevention campaign for us,” said Lorri L. Jean, CEO of the L.A. Gay & Lesbian Center. “The image of her on billboards and posters, saying to a shirtless guy holding an umbrella: ‘don’t forget your rubbers,’ is now iconic. She will be deeply missed.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
