Former Fox News anchor Terry Keenan died late Thursday, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
In a statement to Mediaite.com, Keenan's sister, Linda, said the former anchor died of a massive cerebral hemorrhage and had received treatment at New York's Lenox Hill Hospital.
"It is with tremendous sorrow that we report the passing, due to a massive cerebral hemorrhage, of a wonderful mother, wife, sister, and pioneering financial journalist," the statement read. "Terry was a trailblazer who credited much of her success to her beloved mother's emphasis on education, which led her to Holy Names Academy in Albany, NY, and a math scholarship to Johns Hopkins University."
