From Bloomberg.com :

Beverly Sills, the American coloratura soprano whose glittering vocalism, warmly projected personality and infectious laugh captivated opera lovers for the last 40 years, has died. She was 78.

The cause was inoperable lung cancer, said her manager Edgar Vincent. He said she died at her home shortly before 9 p.m. New York time.
