Kris Kristofferson, the actor, musician and long-haired activist who embodied the countercultural spirit of postwar America, died at his home in Maui, Hawaii, on Saturday, a representative confirmed. He was 88. 'It is with a heavy heart that we share the news our husband/father/grandfather, Kris Kristofferson, passed away peacefully on Saturday, September 28 at home,' said a family statement shared by spokesperson Ebie McFarland. 'We’re all so blessed for our time with him.
' It was also the era when Hollywood called, and Kristofferson became an archetype — his hair, his wisdom, his romance seen throughout the country via the hit remake “A Star Is Born,” in which he portrayed an aging music icon opposite an up-and-comer portrayed by Barbra Streisand. He won the Golden Globe for best performance by an actor in 1977 for the movie, which was released the previous year.
