Celebrated ABC News journalist Cokie Roberts died Tuesday morning from complications related to breast cancer, her family confirmed to the network. She was 75.

We will miss Cokie beyond measure, both for her contributions and for her love and kindness, her family said in a statement to ABC.

Roberts took home a number of awards, including three Emmys, after getting her start at CBS News in the 1970s, followed by a stint at NPR covering Capitol Hill. At a time when few women were given prominent newsroom roles, she made an indelible mark on broadcast journalism.

In the months before her death, Roberts was still contributing to both NPR and ABC as a political commentator .
