Olivia de Havilland, legendary Golden Age Hollywood star, has died at age 104.
The news was confirmed to Fox News by her rep, as well as her son-in-law Andrew Chulack.
The two-time Academy Award winner was born in 1916 and died on Sunday of natural causes in her Paris home, The Hollywood Reporter reports.
The star was the last surviving star of "Gone With the Wind," which had recently come under scrutiny for its depiction of slavery in the pre-abolition South. De Havilland was nominated for an Oscar for her role in the movie.
The actress won two Oscars in her lifetime -- one for her work in "To Each His Own" and another for "The Heiress."

I lived in Saratoga Ca for awhile, a few doors down from where she and her sister Joan Fontaine grew up. Rumor has it that she wanted to be a teacher and resisted the call to go to Hollywood. Glad she changed her mind.
