Anorexic From HBO Commits Suicide
Polly Williams, one of the women featured in the HBO documentary “Thin,” was found dead last Friday, according to reports.
Williams (whose real name was Pollack Ann Williams) died at her Tennessee residence, and according to a report by the New York Post’s Page Six, it is believed to be a suicide.
The 33-year-old Williams, who was a lobbyist for the National Eating Disorders Association, was one of four women featured in Laura Greenfield’s 2006 HBO documentary, “Thin,” which chronicled the women’s lives inside Renfrew, a Florida treatment center.
However, Williams was kicked out of Renfrew for allegedly giving pills to a fellow patient and getting a tattoo.
