NEW YORK (AP) Ann Reinking, the Tony Award-winning choreographer, actress and Bob Fosse collaborator who helped spread a cool, muscular hybrid of jazz and burlesque movement to Broadway and beyond, has died. She was 71.

Reinking died Saturday while visiting family in Seattle, said her manager, Lee Gross. No cause of death was disclosed.

Tributes poured in from the Broadway community, including from Tony Yazbeck, who called her an absolute inspiration and Leslie Odom, Jr., who thanked Reinking for being a mentor: She honored the calling for real. RIP to a legend. Bernadette Peters took to Twitter to say her heart was broken and Billy Eichner said she was one of the most mesmerizing people Ive ever seen on stage. A singular genius. RIP.
