Mary Tyler Moore was born on 29 December 1936, in Brooklyn, New York City USA, and was an actress, best known for being a part of numerous sitcoms, including “The Mary Tyler Moore Show”, and “The Dick Van Dyke Show”. She also appeared in numerous films such as “Ordinary People”, and “Thoroughly Modern Millie”, and in particular was known to portray characters that pushed the boundaries of the stereotypical images of women on television, and as a part of gender norms. She also did a lot of charity work before her untimely passing in 2017.
A Television and Film Star’s Wealth
How rich was Mary Tyler Moore? As of early-2018, sources inform us of a net worth that is at $60 million, mostly earned through a successful career in acting, but she also wrote books and founded her own production company. All of her achievements ensured the position of her wealth.
The Mary Tyler Moore Show and Subsequent Work
At a young age Mary’s family moved to Los Angeles, and she would then attend Immaculate Heart High School. Around that time, she decided that she wanted to pursue a career as a dancer, and initially appeared in several television commercials in the 1950s. She also modelled anonymously for covers of record albums, before eventually getting her opportunity to become a part of television, with support roles in TV series such as “Johnny Staccato” and “Bachelor Father”. She then appeared in numerous films and television projects, such as “77 Sunset Strip”, “Dead or Alive”, and “Thriller”.
In 1961, she was cast in “The Dick Van Dyke Show” which was a series based on Carl Reiner’s life and career, and would be a part of the show for five years playing Van Dyke’s wife, gaining a lot of popularity and becoming internationally known. She eventually won her first Emmy Award for the role, which would then lead to her own sitcom – “The Mary Tyler Moore Show”. In the series, she popularized the premise of the single working woman which eventually became a television staple. From 1970 to 1977, the show enjoyed good ratings until it eventually died down in season seven, which led producers to cancel the series. Despite that, the show would hold the record for winning the most Emmys, before it was broken by the sitcom “Frasier” in 2002.

After “The Mary Tyler Moore Show”, she would go on to appear in several other projects – she attempted to try the musical-variety genre with “Mary”, but it proved unsuccessful, suffering from poor reviews and strife within the production crew. She had several more short-lived projects, and also had a guest role in the television show “Ellen’. In 2006 she would make a guest appearance in the sitcom “That ‘70s Show”, and also appeared in a “Hot in Cleveland” reunion, in which she announced to the public that she had diagnosed with terminal brain cancer and only had a few months to live.
Charity Work
Aside from her acting work, Mary was the International Chairman of the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation or JDRF, helping raise funds and awareness of diabetes mellitus type 1. She was also a long time animal rights activist, and supported charities such as ASPCA as well as Farm Sanctuary.
Away From the Spotlight – Life, Health, and Death
Mary was a recovered alcoholic. She was diagnosed with Type I diabetes in 1969. She had surgery in 2011 to remove a benign brain tumor, but later in her life, she was starting to have heart and kidney problems, and was also nearly blind. In 2017, she passed away from cardiopulmonary arrest complicated by pneumonia, while at the Greenwich Hospital after being put on a respirator for the previous week. Her funeral was a private ceremony held at the Oak Lawn Cemetery in Fairfield, Connecticut.

Quotes
| # | Quote |
|---|---|
| 1 | I've been a diabetic for about 35 years now (as of 2012), and I'm one of the very lucky few who has managed to live that long without having major problems. I do have problems with my eyes, one eye in particular, and if I fall, I generally break a bone. |
| 2 | [about her pit bull Spanky]: He has, as with some dogs that have been written about, the ability to sense when things are off in their owners, their masters, whatever we're calling them in this day and age. He can tell when my blood sugar is dipping low. |
| 3 | [when she was cast as the icy mother in Ordinary People (1980)]: "I was thinking of my own family history and how we missed the mark of being everything that I'm sure people thought I was. Because I had, though nothing that would raise your eyebrows. I had problems with my father, in that he expected more from me than I was able to give. I did not do well in school, and that was a big disappointment to him. [on the other hand,] we did our shows, both the The Dick Van Dyke Show (1961) and mine, in front of audiences, and he and my mother would come to every show. And I could recognize my father's laugh." |
| 4 | [on throwing her hat in the air for the title shots for Mary Tyler Moore (1970)]: "It was a hat that my aunt had given me for Christmas, and I brought it with me because they said: 'Be sure and dress warm. It's going to be freezing in Minneapolis.' So - I forget which writer it was - but we were all outside, and he said: 'You know what would be good? If you take that hat, the beret, and throw it in the air.' " |
| 5 | Couldn't you just slap my face for being so positive and optimistic? |
| 6 | There are certain things about me that I will never tell to anyone because I am a very private person. But basically what you see is who I am. I'm independent, I do like to be liked, I do look for the good side of life and people. I'm positive, I'm disciplined, I like my life in order, and I'm neat as a pin. I love order and discipline. God, I sound like a Nazi don't I? |
| 7 | Diets are for those who are thick and tired of it. |
| 8 | I'm not an actress who can create a character. I play me. |
| 9 | Diabetes is an all-too-personal time bomb which can go off today, tomorrow, next year, or 10 years from now - a time bomb affecting millions like me and the children here today. |
| 10 | There is a dark side. I tend not to be as optimistic as Mary Richards. I have an anger in me that I carry from my childhood experiences -- I expect a lot of myself and I'm not too kind to myself. |
| 11 | Sometimes you have to get to know someone really well to realize you're really strangers. |
