By Greg Evans Associate Editor/Broadway Critic Patricia Bosworth, an actress-turned-writer whose biographies of fellow Actors Studio alumni Montgomery Clift, Marlon Brando and Jane Fonda were best-sellers and, certainly with the Clift book, definitive for their times, died Thursday of complications related to COVID-19.

She was 86. Bosworth’s stepdaughter Fia Hatsav told The New York Times that the author died of pneumonia brought on by the coronavirus.

Bosworth began her show business career as a model in the 1950s (she was photographed by Diane Arbus, whose life she’d later chronicle) before enrolling in New York’s Actors Studio to study with Lee Strasberg.
