Ann Gillis - 2001: A Space Odyssey

[LordFerret]

While looking for something else, I just ran across the news that Ann Gillis, who played Dr. Frank Poole's mother in the Kubrik / Clarke film 2001: A Space Odyssey, had recently died... without any fanfare in the press apparently, not that I saw. She passed away on January 31, 2018. RIP

Alan Gifford (John Lennox), who played the role as Poole's father, passed years earlier on March 20, 1989.

That's sad. Thanks for letting us know though.
