McCormick guest starred
in "The Nancy Drew
Mysteries" playing Karen
Phillips in the episode "Nancy
Drew's Love Match".
Maureen is remembered to millions
and millions of viewers as Marcia
in the blockbuster sitcom The
Brady Bunch which ran for 5
seasons and due to the success of
the TV series her and her TV
siblings recorded 4 albums and
did summer tours along making TV
appearances plus did a Saturday
morning animated series titled The
Brady Kids in which she used
her voice along with the other
cast.
After the successful run of the
series Maureen started her solo
singing career at the age of 16!
Her first solo release, the
single Little Bird was off to a
promising start by climbing up
the charts on the west coast.
After performing the song on American
Bandstand, the show's host,
Dick Clark, encouraged the young
star to pursue a full time
musical career. Offers began
pouring in, among them an
opportunity to record a country
album. But, Maureen wasn't ready
yet... Maureen wanted to complete
her education and live a
"normal" life after
those crazy, fun-filled years of
early stardom.
There were many Brady Bunch
reunions in which she reprised
her role in such as when 1976 was
nearing it's end was in The
Brady Bunch Variety Hour but
after 9 episodes the series was
cancelled due to poor ratings but
in 1980 starred in the
short-lived The Brady Brides
and then in 1988 was in the movie
of the week A Very Brady
Christmas and then was asked
to be in The Brady's but
she declined and felt it was time
to move on.
Eventually, she got married and
had a little daughter, Natalie --
perhaps a future star in the
making? But, along the way
there were still feature films
she won roles in including Pony
Express Rider (1976), Moonshine
County Express (1977),
Take Down (1978),
Skatetown, U.S.A. (1979), Texas

and Get to the Heart:
The Barbara Mandrell Story
(1997)
In 1995, during the making of her
acclaimed new country album, When
You Get a Little Lonely Maureen
starred in the Broadway revival
of Grease. Performing
throughout the USA, Maureen has
promoted her album and has
appeared with Clint Black, Faith
Hill, Hal Ketchum and Confederate
Railroad, just to mention a few
and has finally come full circle!
She still pursued her career in
acting as she did a stint as Judy
Beauchamp on the short-lived Teen
Angel, Moody's Mom in a
season of The Amanda Show
plus participating in the series Sparkle
Lounge and My Life as a
Sitcom and continues to act
in shows and released a book on
her life.
Before her fame in the Brady
Bunch Maureen had a unique
voice was already performing
commercial jingles by the age of
six. For instance, it's her you
see and hear singing in many of
the original Pillsbury
Dougboy commercial ans her
voice coming out of the mouth of Chatty
Cathy, the 20th century's
first talking doll!
When Maureen was six, her mother
noticed an article in a local
newspaper proclaiming a search
for a "Baby Miss San
Fernando Valley." Maureen
entered -- and won. Soon
thereafter, a Hollywood agent
called the McCormick home and
asked if Maureen was interested
in entering show business.
Maureen said yes, and by the age
of seven had won the lead role in
Ray Stark's play Wind It Up
and It Breaks, which was
performed at the La Jolla
Playhouse.
Next she gained success in guest
roles on TV shows including Bewitched,
Camp Runamuck, The Farmers
Daughter, Honey West, I Dream of
Jeannie, My Three Sons, Marcus

Ray
guest starred in "The
Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew
Mysteries" playing "Dr. Orin
Thatcher" in
a 2-part episode: "Voodoo
Doll"
Born
Reginald Alfred Truscott-Jones, 3
January, 1907, Neath, Wales, died
10 March, 1986. After three years
of service as a guardsman with
the Royal Household Cavalry in
London, he entered British films
in 1929. There are a few
different stories about why he
changed his name. Some say that
he adopted a variation of his
step-father's surname of Mullane.
In Ray Milland's autobiography, Wide-eyed
In Babylon, he explains that
after many hours of arguing with
his agent, he got up and said,
"I don't really care what
you call me. I must keep the
initial "R" because my
mother had it engraved on my
suitcases. Other than that, I
don't really care, but if you all
don't come up with something
soon, I'm packing these suitcases
and going back to the mill lands
where I came from!", thus
Ray Milland was born.
After several roles, both big and
small, he set out for Hollywood
in 1930. For several years he
played mostly second leads,
usually as the heroes friend or
rival, but graduated to leads in
the mid 1930s.
Charming, and debonair, he played
suave, self-assured romantic
leading men in many drawing room
comedies and an occasional
mystery or adventure.
He won a 1945 Academy Award for a
film he drew little attention to.
Most of his subsequent roles were
less rewarding, but he often
proved capable of overcoming
minor vehicles with interesting
characterizations.
Starting in 1955, he directed
himself in a number of films with
surprising proficiency but
less-than-remarkable results.
After an absence of several
years, he returned to the screen
in 1970. He also starred in the
TV comedy series The Ray
Milland Show and in the
short-lived drama series Markham.
A book-loving homebody, he kept
away from the Hollywood glitter
and was rarely mentioned in the
gossip columns. He was married to
the same woman for 54 years.
|
He died
on March 10, 1986 in Torrance,
California of lung cancer.

Muldaur guest starred in
"The Hardy Boys
Mysteries" playing
"Leta Manheim" in
episode: "Sole
Survivor" (episode #
2.16) 1/29/1978
Educated at Sweet Briar College,
Diana Muldaur began her New York
stage career in 1963, appearing
in three Broadway plays--Seidelman
and Son, Poor Biros
and A Very Rich Woman--back
to back. She also played a
regular role in the
Manhattan-based soap opera The
Secret Storm.
Exuding
a serenity and maturity beyond
her years, she was generally cast
in cool, sophisticated roles,
often as a deliberate contrast to
her less-polished male co-stars.
For example, she was a regular on
the TV series McCloud
from 1970 to 77, cast as
rambunctious Marshal Sam
McCloud's (Dennis Weaver) low-key
lady friend Chris Coughlin.
Conversely, she was vitriol
personified as barracuda lawyer
Rosalind Shays in LA Law
for two seasons--at least she was
until her character took a
spectacular season--ending plunge
down an empty elevator shaft.
Other TV programs that have
utilized Muldaur on a weekly
basis have included The
Survivors, the mini-series Black
Beauty, the short-lived Born
Free, The Tony Randall
Show, the mini-series The
Word, the short-lived Hizzoner,
Fitz and Bones and in the
mini-series and short lived
series of A Year in the Life.
In addition, she is among the few
actors who have shown up in both
the original Star Trek (in
two guest-star assignments) and Star
Trek: The Next Generation
(as Dr. Katherine Pulaski) as
well as the short-lived Hearts
Are Wild. Undoubtedly one of
her more enjoyable (and least
taxing) assignments was as the
voice of Dr. Leslie Thompson on Batman:
The Animated Series.
Equally busy when not performing
before the cameras, Muldaur is a
past member of the SAG board of
the directors. Diana Muldaur is
the widow of actor James Mitchell
Vickery. |
