Jan was a neighbor......and I always respected her privacy. When she "retired" 2 years ago I had been tempted to ask her why but I didn't. I have always loved her work and knew she was a private person.
Several years ago I was assistant to the Producer on a the workshop of FEMME FATALE.....Some of the finest work I've ever seen from a truly STAR cast. Jan's work was particularly difficult and she was quietly amazing
I will miss seeing her in the neighborhood and just saying Hi in passing....she was always kind and soft spoken with me.
Broadway has lost a GREAT talent way to young!
I am truly sad at this loss.
Condolences to her family.

This is a sad sad day for Broadway!

Heartbreaking. She showed an unparalleled range in her theatrical endeavors and was terrific in everything I ever saw her in. I saw her shortly after she announced her retirement from the stage and she did not look well, but I am still shocked by this.

I nearly collided with her on the street once while she was playing Phyllis in Follies and, doing my best not to be intrusive, I managed to tell her how wonderful I thought she was. She seemed shy but was most gracious.

A terribly sad loss. May she rest in peace.

So sad...A blessing she was appreciated and able to let her light shine in so much work, but indeed gone too soon.
