But before we look into how Karen Carpenter died and her final days, let’s reflect upon her incredible life and career first. She was born on March 2nd, 1950, in New Haven, Connecticut. Her father worked in the printing industry so it certainly wasn’t thought that Karen Carpenter would become a famous singer.
Her elder brother Richard took an interest in playing the piano at a young age. In fact, he became so great at playing piano that he was considered a prodigy. He introduced Karen to music and it wasn’t long until she became interested in performing. She pursued different instruments and practiced her singing – with the hopes of one day becoming a star.
And that’s exactly what happened. Karen Carpenter and her brother Richard became the duo The Carpenters – one of the most famous singing and music duos of their generation. But their incredible career came to an end with Karen Carpenter’s untimely death in 1983 at the age of 32.
It’s been 40 years and now her brother Richard Carpenter has spoken out about her tragic death. Now’s the time for us to remember her incredible contribution to music and how even in such a short life she lived a life that many of us would envy and aspire to have.
