Sam Shepard, the Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright, Oscar-nominated actor and renowned author, has died aged 73.
He died at his Kentucky home from complications related to Lou Gehrig's disease, or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, last week, a family spokesman has announced.
His 1979 play Buried Child, about the disappointment and disillusionment with the American Dream, won the Pulitzer for drama. The taciturn Shepard earned his Oscar nomination for his performance in 1983 astronaut drama The Right Stuff. More recently, he starred as Robert Rayburn in Netflix series Bloodline.
Shepard, known as a man of few words, produced 44 plays and numerous books, memoirs and short stories.
