Debbie Reynolds died yesterday (December 28), just a day after the death of her daughter Carrie Fisher. Reynolds is best known for co-starring in the classic 1952 musical Singin' in the Rain with Gene Kelly and had a successful acting career spanning decades. 

Reynolds appeared in over 30 films in the '50s and '60s, even garnering an Oscar nomination for 1964's The Unsinkable Molly Brown. She also performed on Broadway and on the stage in Las Vegas, earning a Tony nomination for the title role in the revival of Irene in 1973. 

She was only 18 when she was cast in Singin' in the Rain. "'Singin' in the Rain' and childbirth were the hardest things I ever had to do in my life," wrote Reynolds in her 1988 autobiography Debbie. 

Reynolds suffered a stroke yesterday while mourning for her daughter. "She wanted to be with Carrie," said her son Todd Fisher to Variety.
