RIP, Kathryn Joosten

[calliopes_pen]

Kathryn Joosten has passed away at the age of 72, following a battle with lung cancer. May she rest in peace. While she may be most famous for her role of Mrs. McCluskey on Desperate Housewives, I also recall she appeared in an episode of Buffy—IMDB says it was season 4’s Where The Wild Things Are, as Genevive Holt. She didn’t actively pursue an acting career until she was 42.
