NEW YORK, Nov. 9 (UPI) -- Ed Bradley, the veteran, award-winning CBS "60 Minutes" correspondent, has died of leukemia at Mt. Sinai hospital in New York at the age of 65.
Bradley had been a part of the news magazine for 26 years, earning numerous awards, including 19 Emmy's, CBS reported.
"CBS Evening News" anchor and managing editor Katie Couric said in a special report that Bradley was "considered intelligent, smooth, cool, a great reporter, beloved and respected by all his colleagues ... at CBS News."
"He certainly was a reporter's reporter," longtime "60 Minutes" reporter Mike Wallace said.
Bradley was also honored with the Lifetime Achievement award from the National Association of Black Journalists.
Three of his Emmys came in 2003, including a Lifetime Achievement Emmy, another for "A New Lease on Life," a "60 Minutes" report on brain cancer patients, and another for "The Catholic Church on Trial," an hour-long report on "60 Minutes II" about sexual abuse in the Catholic Church.
Bradley is survived by his wife, Patricia Blanchet.
