British singer and actress Marianne Faithfull, known for hits such as As Tears Go By and her relationship with Mick Jagger, has died at the age of 78. Her career was marked by collaborations with some of the biggest names in music.
“Marianne passed away peacefully in London today, in the company of her loving family,” said a statement from her spokesperson. “She will be dearly missed.”
Born on December 29, 1946, Faithfull grew up in the Hampstead neighborhood of London. Her father worked in British intelligence, and her mother was a baroness, according to Rolling Stone magazine. Her parents separated when she was six years old, and she spent time in a convent. As a teenager, she explored acting and folk singing.
After meeting producer Andrew Loog Oldham at a party, Faithfull became a breakout star at 17 with her debut single, the ballad As Tears Go By, the first song written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards.
