Oscar-winning actress Celeste Holm has died.

Legendary actress passed away at age 95.

I hate waking up to bad news, especially when it involves the passing of legendary actors and actresses. Sadly, that's exactly what happened today: Celeste Holm, one of the best and brightest, passed away today in New York.

Celeste Holm, who won a best supporting actress Academy Award for her performance in the 1947 classic movie Gentleman's Agreement, died with her family and friends by her side. Holm was 95 years old.Gentleman's Agreement is a brilliant film, so if you haven't seen it yet -- make that a priority. Celeste Holm played opposite Gregory Peck in the movie, which was directed by the legendary Elia Kazan. Holm gave one of the most powerful performances I've ever seen. Gentleman's Agreement is worth tracking down.

But Holm's incredible career wasn't limited to just one great movie. In 1950, she was nominated for an Oscar for her role in All About Eve. Holm played Karen, the best friend of Margot (Bette Davis). Holm also received an Academy Award nomination for 1949's Come to the Stable.

Celeste Holm was also a phenomenal star on Broadway, appearing as Ado Annie in the 1943 production of Oklahoma!

As news began to spread of Holm's death, stars offered tributes, including Leonard Nimoy. Nimoy tweeted, "Celeste Holm has passed away. What a joy for me to direct this great professional in Three Men And A Baby. She played Ted Danson's mom. RIP."

That's right: Celeste Holm was in Three Men And a Baby, too. Holm's resume is impressive, spanning more than six decades and encompassing film, television and Broadway.

Holm fell ill after a fire in her Central Park West apartment building (in actor Robert De Niro's apartment, actually). She was hospitalized, and her condition continued to deteriorate. Eventually, she was taken out of the hospital and brought to her home, where her niece, Amy Phillips, said she died with everyone "who loved her" surrounding her.

Rest in peace, Celeste Holm: Your legacy will live forever, but you will be missed.
