Her daughter, Katie O’Connell-Fiala, confirmed that she died Monday in Thousand Oaks, Calif.

She appeared in her father’s films including “Strangers on a Train,” “Psycho” and “Stage Fright.” In “Psycho,” Hitchcock played Janet Leigh’s office mate Caroline, who offers to share her tranquilizers.

Looking at her pic, I don’t remember her in any of those films/TV shows. But, RIP.

I remember her well in those episodes of “Alfred Hitchcock Presents” and some of the movies. Also remember seeing her do interviews about her parents’ legacy on Charlie Rose, etc. Seemed like a great lady. RIP.

I loved her in “Strangers on a Train.” Great film.

If you have not seen "Strangers on a Train" (1951), you are missing one of the best Hitchcocks. She had a big role in that one.
