Although Agnes Moorehead appeared in more than 70 films and on dozens of television shows during a career that spanned more than 30 years, she is probably most widely known to modern audiences for her role as the witch Endora in the television series Bewitched.
While rarely playing leads in films, Moorehead’s skill at character development and range earned her one Emmy, and two Golden Globe awards in addition to four Oscar and six Emmy nominations. Moorehead’s transition to television won acclaim and accolades for her work in drama and in comedy.
She could play many different character types, but often portrayed haughty, arrogant characters. Agnes Robertson Moorehead died of uterine cancer in Rochester, Minnesota on April 30, 1974, not lung cancer as was long believed. She was 73 years of age.
