Dr. Ruth Westheimer, the iconic sex therapist whose cheerful and disarming advice helped educate millions of Americans about sexual desires and practices, has died, her publicist Pierre Lehu told CNN on Saturday. She was 96.
The diminutive, grandmotherly Westheimer was a leading advocate of sexual education for decades, dispensing colorful, witty advice in her distinctive German accent.
“Dr. Ruth” – as she was more commonly known – died while her two children sat alongside at her home Friday around 11:30 p.m., Lehu said.

Me too. Also thought she was in her 90s 20 years ago.

She lived a long and interesting life.
Crazy little lady loved talking about sex. Go in peace.

She was trained as a sniper by the Israeli army.
She survived the nazis.
She attended the same college as Marie Curie, the Sarbonne Institute

When I was in high school (mid 80’s), she was on the radio after 11pm. Answering questions.
Was amazing entertainment.

I have a fond memory of Dr. Ruth answering viewer questions on Late Night with David Letterman, and after a letter about someone throwing onion rings onto their husband's erection (her advice was to make sure the onion rings weren't too hot), Hal Gurney cut to the Late Night "More to Come" bumper slide that featured onion rings. :)
