Laura Harring is mourning the loss of her Mulholland Drive director, David Lynch, who died at age 78. The actors who worked with Lynch over his prolific career have shared their thoughts, and Harring paid tribute to the late filmmaker in a post on social media.

Lynch was born in Missoula, Mont., in 1946 and grew up in Spokane, Wash., and Boise, Idaho. His father was a forest research scientist, and Lynch spent much of his childhood outside, exploring. Those same mysterious Pacific Northwest woods would eventually inspire Twin Peaks.
