*******************************************
Marriages come and go...Divorce is forever!
                                                         Nora Ephron
*******************************************

Nora Ephron penned those words as the tagline of HuffPost Divorce in 2010. Among her many literary and onscreen accomplishments--"When Harry Met Sally...," "Heartburn" and "Sleepless in Seattle," to name a few--The Huffington Post's Divorce section was Ephron's brainchild, and she served as our guiding force and editor-at-large.

Today, we mourn the loss of Ephron, who died Tuesday.

Ephron was a two-time divorcee, and divorce was a constant theme in her life. Her second marriage to--and subsequent divorce from -- famed journalist Carl Bernstein inspired her 1983 novel "Heartburn," which was adapted into the acclaimed film by the same name starring Jack Nicholson and Meryl Streep.
