John Hughes

The 59-year-old director who helmed such 1980s classics as The Breakfast Club, Sixteen Candles and Ferris Bueller's Day Off suffered a heart attack during a morning jog on Aug. 6. "I was stunned and incredibly sad to hear about the death of John Hughes," Molly Ringwald, who worked with Hughes on three films, said. "He was and will always be such an important part of my life."
