Kitty Bruce, the daughter of comedian Lenny Bruce and Harriett “Honey” Bruce, died May 13 in Pittston, Pennsylvania, following complications from a surgical procedure, her family confirmed to Variety. She was 70.
“On November 7, 1955, Kitty was born into a life that was anything but ordinary — from her very first days she entered a world already in motion, complicated, loud, and very public, shaped by forces larger than most people ever encounter,” her family wrote in a statement. “What is remarkable is not that she survived them, but what she chose to do because of them. She chose compassion. She chose service. She chose love.”
