Oscar winning director Mike Nichols has died at 83, he's also the husband of Diane Sawyer.
I don't think anyone had him.
Renowned director Mike Nicholas died suddenly on Wednesday of a heart attack at the age of 83.
The director brought fierce wit, caustic social commentary and wicked absurdity to classics such as The Graduate, The Birdcage, Angels in America and for the stage, Monty Python's Spamalot, in a career that spanned six decades.
His directorial golden touch led him to be one of only 12 people to win an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and numerous Tony Awards.
Nichols was married for more than 25 years to TV news anchor Diane Sawyer who he said gave him 'ultimate happiness'.
