Pat Hitchcock dies, strangers in train star, and Alfred Hitchcock's daughter was 93

 Pat Hitchcock, Alfred Hitchcock's only child who has appeared in some of the director's legendary horror films, has passed away. The actress, who also performed on Broadway as a teenager, died Monday at her Thousand Oaks home. His daughter, Katie Fiala, an Amblin executive, confirmed the news. Hitchcock was 93 years old.

Hitchcock's parents were married for 54 years. Along with her famous father Alfred, Hitchcock was also the daughter of editor and screenwriter Alma Reville. She was born on July 7, 1928, and the apple did not fall too far from the Hitchcock family tree. As a child, she aspired to be an actress and began working on stage in the early 1940s.

In 1950, Hitchcock began to appear in projects for his famous father. She began with the role of cheerful college student Chubby Bannister in the British film noir Trac . Because she looked just like star Jane Wyman, Alfred Hitchcok also asked Pat to voice for Wyman in some scenes of the film. After Trac , Pat would also play Barbara Morton in Strangers on a Train in 1951 in perhaps her most important movie role. In 1960, Hitchcock even appeared in Psychopath as Caroline, a friend of Janet Leigh's Marion Crane.

Additionally, Pat would appear in ten episodes of the half-hour Alfred Hitchcock Presents television series from the mid to late 1950s. She would also appear in an uncredited role as Lady of the Court in the 1956 religious drama. The Ten Commandments . She would return to the big screen once again in 1978 with an appearance in the sports drama Skateboarding by director George Gage.

For many years, Pat was the family representative on the staff of The Alfred Hitchcock Mystery Magazine . She also wrote the front of the book Traces in the Fog: Alfred Hitchcock's San Francisco by Jeff Kraft and Aaron Leventhal, which was published in 2002. The following year, she published Alma Hitchcock: The Woman Behind the man paying homage to his late mother; the book was co-written with Laurent Bouzereau.

“I don't think she ever had the credit for being as good as she was. My father depended on her for everything. At first she wrote the scripts then became the continuity and eventually she just worked with him all the time, ”Pat once said of writing the book.

“[I wish my father] believed in nepotism. I would have worked a lot more, "Hitchcock also said in an interview with the Washington Post in 1984." But he never had anyone in his photos unless he thought they were right for the role. He never adapted a story to a star or an actor. I often tried to allude to his assistant, but I never got very far. She would mention my name, he would say, "She's not made for that", and that would be the end of it all. "

Pat Hitchock's father Alfred died in 1980 of kidney failure at the age of 80. Two years later, she lost her mother at 82. Her husband, Joseph O'Connell Jr., died of a heart attack in 1994. Among Hitchcock's survivors are his daughters. , Marie, Tere and Katie. Our thoughts are with them in these painful times. May Pat Hitchcock rest in peace. This news comes to us from the Hollywood Reporter.
