It is with the deep sadness that we learned of the death of Natasha Richardson.  Natasha was one of the most beautiful, elegant and talented women of the age.  She brought grace and depth to her roles on screen and on stage.  Yet, despite her stardom, she was wonderfully warm and accessible. 

Together with Liam Neeson, she retained a deep affection for Ireland and her people which she spoke about enthusiastically at our New York Dinner Gala in May 2008, which honored Liam.

We have lost a great actor and artist but, more importantly, a mother and a wife. 

We express our deepest condolences to Liam, their two sons Michael and Daniel, her extended family and her many, many friends and admirers.

May Natasha rest in peace.
