Lynne Frederick(1954-1994)

Following her own death, Frederick left $250,000 to be split between the British Heart Foundation and the Middlesex Hospital in London as tribute to her late husband, Peter Sellers (who died of a heart attack). As a sign of gratitude, the Middlesex Hospital hung up a plaque thanking both Sellers and Frederick for their generous donation.

[on her career] I'm the sort of person who really takes it as it comes. If it comes nicely, then that's lovely; if it doesn't, then it doesn't. If I don't get work then I sort of think about doing something else. Of course it's getting better and it's lovely.
