R.I.P. Mike Nichols

Today, one of the entertainment industry's most beloved and talented artists, Mike Nichols, died at 83. He was one of the most respected theater and film directors of his generation, as well as a great producer, and even actor and comedian. Even if you aren't familiar with the name, his body of work includes classics like The Graduate (which won him Best Director), Catch-22, Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, Working Girl, Closer, The Birdcage, Charlie Wilson's War, Carnal Knowledge, and the HBO miniseries Angels in America. He was one of the few people to win an Oscar, Emmy, Grammy, and a Tony. He will surely be missed and will be remembered as a multi-talented and brilliant icon of theater and cinema.
