WENDY O. WILLIAMS COMMITS SUICIDE

Williams made a run at a solo career after The Plasmatics split in '82, eventually scoring a Grammy nomination for Female Rock Vocal in 1985. Williams also tried her hand at movies and TV, including roles in Reform School Girls and on McGyver before leaving the entertainment world to work with animals. According to Swenson, she had been despondent recently and had difficulty adjusting to life out of the spotlight. "This was something she had planned," Swenson told the media. "It was no spur-of-the-moment thing." Williams is survived by her mother and two sisters.
She was 48.

Wendy O'Williams (1950-1998)
