Oscar-nominated 'MASH' actor Sally Kellerman dies at 84

LOS ANGELES — Sally Kellerman, the Oscar and Emmy nominated actor who played Margaret"Hot Lips" Houlihan in director Robert Altman's 1970 film"MASH," died Thursday.

In the film's key scene, and its peak moment of misogyny, a tent where Houlihan is showering is pulled open and she is exposed to an audience of cheering men.She carries on a torrid affair with the equally uptight Major Frank Burns, played by Robert Duvall, demanding that he kiss her"hot lips" in a moment secretly broadcast over the camp's public address speakers, earning her the nickname.

Sally Clare Kellerman was born in 1937 in Long Beach, California, the daughter of a piano teacher and an oil executive, moving to Los Angeles as a child and attending Hollywood High School. She worked mostly in television early in her career, with a lead role in 1962's"Cheyenne" and guest appearances on"The Twilight Zone,"The Outer Limits,""The Alfred Hitchcock Hour" and"Bonanza."
