She died in her sleep according to son and former L.A. Law actor, Corbin Bernsen.
“She has been a blaze her entire life, that beacon, that boxer I spoke of earlier. She went the full twelve rounds and by unanimous decision… won!” Bernsen wrote on Facebook overnight.
Cooper joined the show in 1973, six months after the pilot episode screening giving her the title of the show’s longest cast member.
“Its foundation was set so well and you had core characters that you could grow and become involved with,” Cooper said of the show’s 40th milestone.
“As you got older, they got a year older. Whether you were wealthy or whatever your status is, our show hit the human being.”
