Award-winning lyricist Marilyn Bergman dies.

Award-winning lyricist Marilyn Bergman died Saturday morning at her home in Los Angeles, according to her daughter Julie Bergman. She was 93.

Along with her husband and collaborator Alan, Bergman was nominated for 16 Academy Awards over the course of her career and won three, including for the song "The Way We Were" from the 1973 film that shared its name and starred Barbra Streisand. The song -- with music by composer Marvin Hamlisch -- also won two Grammys.

The Bergmans won two other Oscars for their song "Windmills of Your Mind" in 1968's "The Thomas Crown Affair" and for the score of 1983's "Yentl," which was also directed by and starred Streisand. The couple also won four Emmys and two Golden Globe Awards, among others.
