R.I.P. Veronique Peck
Veronique Passani Peck, the widow of actor Gregory Peck and a longtime arts patron, died Friday of heart failure at her Los Angeles home, according to the Associated Press. She was 80. Born in Paris, Veronique Peck met the actor when she interviewed him for the newspaper France Soir. She moved to the U.S. at 23 and married the movie star. Their marriage lasted 48 years until his death in 2003. Veronique Peck helped create the Inner City Cultural Center in South Los Angeles, was a founder of the Los Angeles Music Center, and a longtime fundraiser for the Los Angeles Public Library. She is survived by two children, writer-producer Anthony Peck and documentary filmmaker Cecilia Peck Voll, a brother and three grandchildren.
