"Mark Shields, the renowned Democratic political journalist, columnist, and commentator for PBS, died on Saturday morning at the age of 85.

Shields' passing was announced on Twitter by one of his longtime colleagues, PBS NewsHour anchor and editor Judy Woodruff. Woodruff noted that Shields passed with his wife, Anne Hudson Shields, by his side. She also commended him for his "decades" of work with PBS and "his encyclopedic knowledge of American politics."

"I am heartbroken to share this," Woodruff wrote in her tweet. "The NewsHour's beloved long-time Friday night analyst Mark Shields, who for decades wowed us with his encyclopedic knowledge of American politics, his sense of humor, and mainly his big heart, has passed away at 85, with his wife Anne at his side."
