Motown artist Syreeta Wright dies at age 58
Motown recording artist and songwriter Syreeta Wright, who collaborated with ex-husband Stevie Wonder in writing several hits including "Signed, Sealed, Delivered" and "If You Really Love Me," died Tuesday. She was 58. Wright died at her home, surrounded by family, after battling breast cancer, her sister Kim Barnum said. Wright was also known for her hit duet with Billy Preston, "With You I'm Born Again," from the 1979 film "Fast Break." She married Wonder in 1970; they divorced about two years later. They remained friends and collaborators until her death, Barnum said. Wonder produced two of Wright's albums, including "Syreeta" and "Stevie Wonder Presents Syreeta" about their love, divorce and friendship. (AP)
