Pat Saperstein Deputy Editor Lynda Obst, who had producing credits on high-profile films including “Sleepless in Seattle,” “Flashdance” and “Adventures in Babysitting,” died Tuesday in Los Angeles.
She was 74. “I was immensely proud of her. She was a trailblazer for women in the industry at a time when it was very difficult for women to have prominent roles.
She was passionate about her work but even more passionate about her family,” her brother, WME’s Rick Rosen, said to Variety.
Obst told the Hollywood Reporter earlier this year that she had been battling chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Most recently, she served as producer or executive producer on TV series including “The Hot Zone,” “Good Girls Revolt,” “Hot in Cleveland” and “Helix.” Obst’s most recent feature producing credit was Christopher Nolan’s “Interstellar” in 2014.
