Jeanne Mulcahy, an Emmy-award winning producer in Los Angeles, has died in a Sonoma hospital after a lengthy battle with cancer.

She was 41 and had moved with her husband, Stephen Brown, from Los Angeles to Sonoma last July when her cancer became critical.

In 1980 she won an Emmy for “La Gioconda,” performed by the San Francisco Opera and produced by KCET. She had been nominated a year earlier for “Live From Los Angeles: Giulini’s Beethoven 9th with the Los Angeles Philharmonic.”

Most recently she had formed her own consulting firm.

In addition to her husband, she is survived by her mother, two sisters and two brothers. She died Sept. 5.
