After leading the rebel alliance, kissing her brother and hooking up with a scruffy looking nerd herder as Princess Leia, Fisher went on to write bestsellers, stage a one-woman show, star as Meg Ryan's BFF in When Harry Met Sally. And on 30 Rock, she begged Tina Fey: "Help me, Liz Lemon! You're my only hope!"
Fisher died at age 60 in 2016, four days after she suffered a cardiac event on a flight from London to Los Angeles. Medical examiners concluded that "sleep apnea and other undetermined factors" contributed to her death.
