Broadcaster Kerry Smith has died following a battle with melanoma.
Smith starred in 80s television series Gloss before working as a television continuity announcer, a weather presenter and the host of home improvement show Changing Rooms.
In January, she took medical leave from her role as an announcer on radio station The Breeze to focus on her treatment.
"Kerry was a respected broadcaster and a very treasured member of the MediaWorks family," MediaWorks group managing director Sussan Turner said.
"Our thoughts are with Kerry's family and close friends at this incredibly sad time."
The Breeze programme director Ian Avery described Smith as "the ultimate professional and a dear friend".
"Listeners loved her, and her colleagues loved her dearly. She will be greatly missed."
