Rebecca Balding death

Rebecca Balding, a veteran stage and screen actress, has died. She was 73.

Balding’s husband, actor and director James L. Conway, confirmed her death in a statement to PEOPLE, noting that she died on Monday in Park City, Utah. She had been battling ovarian cancer.

Conway, 71, also recalls to PEOPLE the story of how the twosome met more than four decades ago.

“I was casting the film, The Boogens. Rebecca came in to audition,” he says. “We chatted, she read and when she left, I turned to the associate producer and said, ‘I could marry that girl.'”

Conway continues, “Somehow she got cast. The first week of shooting we went out. That Saturday night, she proposed. And four weeks later, while still shooting, we got married.  Of course, no one thought it would last. That was 41 years ago.”

It wasn’t long before Balding became an early Scream Queen, nabbing roles in horror film like Silent Scream and The Boogens.
