Helen Reddy, singer of the 70's feminist anthem "I Am Woman," died Tuesday, according to a statement on her Facebook fan page. She was 78.
"It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved mother, Helen Reddy, on the afternoon of September 29th 2020 in Los Angeles. She was a wonderful Mother, Grandmother and a truly formidable woman," said a statement attributed to her children Traci and Jordan.
The Australian singer was also known for "Delta Dawn" and "Ain't No Way to Treat a Lady."
A film biography of Reddy's rise from single mother in New York City to hit artist -- titled "I Am Woman" -- premiered last month. The film stars Tilda Cobham-Hervey as Reddy and features a new song by Reddy's granddaughter Lily Donat.
