LASZLO KOVACS
The Hungarian-born star passed away in his sleep on Saturday night (21Jul07) at his home in Beverly Hills.
Kovacs left his native country in the 1950s to escape the revolts against Hungary's Communist regime and entered the U.S. as a political refugee in 1957.
He enjoyed a lengthy career as one of the industry's most respected directors of photography, and gained recognition for his work on movies such as Easy Rider and GhostBusters.
Kovacs was honoured with the American Society of Cinematographers Lifetime Achievement Award in 2002.
He is survived by his wife Audrey and his two daughters Jullianna and Nadia.
