"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. Our hearts are broken. But we take comfort in the knowledge that her voice will live on forever."

The life of trailblazing Australian singer Helen Reddy is headed for the big screen in a film called I Am Woman.

Producer Rosemary Blight, best known for The Sapphires, Lockie Leonard and the coming TV series Cleverman, is planning a musical bio-pic centring on Reddy's success in America.

After arriving in New York as a single mother in 1966, Reddy had such hits as the feminist anthem I Am Woman, Delta Dawn and Leave Me Alone (Ruby Red Dress), becoming the first Australian-born artist to have a number one hit and selling more than 25 million albums around the world.

Due to recent reports in the media, we feel it necessary to make a statement regarding our mother.

Earlier this summer, Helen made the decision to move into the Motion Picture Home in Woodland Hills. Despite recent reports on the status of her health, we would like to let her fans know that she has not been diagnosed with dementia, nor has she been hospitalized. For the last several months she has been enjoying some time off and spending the summer with friends and family. While she has retired from performing live, there are many exciting projects in the works and plans to continue to share her unique voice for years to come. We want to thank all of her fans for their outpouring of love and support.
