Three-time Oscar-nominated filmmaker and screenwriter Nora Ephron — who wrote the screenplays for movies such as “Sleepless in Seattle” and “When Harry Met Sally,” has died of cancer.

She was 71.

Ephron was considered one of the most powerful women in the entertainment industry, and her other most memorable films were “Silkwood,” “My Blue Heaven,” “Michael,” “You’ve Got Mail,” and “Julie and Julia.”

Ephron was married to (and famously divorced) Watergate scandal reporter Carl Bernstein before entering her 3rd (and final) marriage to screenwriter Nicholas Pileggi.
