Betty White, America's 'Golden Girl,' dies at 99

Betty White's secret to longevity? The beloved actress, who is just weeks away from turning 100 years young, joked that she tries "to avoid anything green" in her diet.

During a career that spanned more than 75 years, White received 23 Emmy nominations and won six. She held the record as the oldest Emmy nominee overall, receiving her most recent nomination in 2012 at age 90. White went on to appear in other sitcoms, late night talk shows and daytime game shows. It was during a 1961 appearance on the game show"Password" that White met her third husband, the host Allen Ludden.

In the 1970s, White's career got a huge boost when she was cast in"The Mary Tyler Moore Show." As Sue Ann Nivens, White showed audiences a sly wit lay behind her sweet smile. In contrast, her character on the 80s hit sitcom"The Golden Girls," opposite Rue McClanahan, Bea Arthur and Estelle Getty, was"terminally naive."
