Donner Summer is dead. She died in the morning at her home
in Key West, Florida at age 63 following a battle with breast
cancer and lung cancer. Named the Queen of Disco, Summer melted hearts with her
sultry voice and lyrics which included chart hits such as ‘Love to Love you
baby’ and ‘Bad Girls'.
Summer was one of seven children born and raised in Boston, USA.
Following her move to Austria
in 1971, she met and fell in love with actor Helmuth Sommer while the two were
acting in Godspell. In 1973, the
couple married and that year Summer gave birth to her first child, daughter
Mimi Sommer. They later divorced and Summer re-married Bruce Sudano and had two
more children.
In 1979, after a nervous break-down, Summer became born-again.
