Actress Diane Keaton, the prolific and idiosyncratic screen star whose portrayal of Woody Allen’s love interest in 1977’s “Annie Hall” brought her an Oscar for best actress, has died at the age of 79, People reported Saturday.

The publication reported that Keaton died in California, but no details were immediately available on her cause of death, or on the specific time and location.

Keaton was born in Los Angeles in 1946. She was part of the original Broadway cast of “Hair” in 1968, and also earned a Tony nomination for Best Featured Actress in a Play for her performance in Allen’s comedy “Play It Again, Sam.”

She first gained the attention of moviegoers with her portrayal of Kay Adams, the wife of Al Pacino’s Michael Corleone in 1972’s epic “The Godfather,” a role she reprised in 1974
