"It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved mother, Helen Reddy, on the afternoon of September 29th 2020 in Los Angeles. She was a wonderful Mother, Grandmother and a truly formidable woman," said a statement attributed to her children Traci and Jordan.
The Australian singer was also known for "Delta Dawn" and "Ain't No Way to Treat a Lady."
A film biography of Reddy's rise from single mother in New York City to hit artist -- titled "I Am Woman" -- premiered last month. The film stars Tilda Cobham-Hervey as Reddy and features a new song by Reddy's granddaughter Lily Donat.
"I Am Woman" was released in 1971, but didn't make it to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 until December of the next year. Then, in 1973 Reddy won her first GRAMMY for the song, according to the Recording Academy GRAMMY Awards website.
"I would like to thank God, because she makes everything possible," Reddy said in her short acceptance speech. She would go on to be nominated for another GRAMMY in 1976.
"Our hearts are broken," the statement from her children said. "But we take comfort in the knowledge that her voice will live on forever."
