Moore didn’t have another hit until her return to television, with her own show The Mary Tyler Moore Show in 1970. She not only starred in the series, but also produced it with her second husband Grant Tinker through their company MTM Enterprises.

The show became a cultural phenomenon, tapping into changing attitudes about women in the workplace. Moore played television producer Mary Richards, one of the first female television characters to be a successful single woman. The TV comedy followed Mary’s personal and professional life at WJM-TV in Minneapolis and also featured Ed Asner, Gavin MacLeod, Ted Knight, Betty White, Valerie Harper, and Cloris Leachman.

Moore won the Emmy Award for Outstanding Continued Performance by an Actress in 1973, 1974, and 1976 for the show, which aired its final episode in 1977.

In addition to The Mary Tyler Moore Show, her company produced a number of other popular television programs, including The Bob Newhart Show (1972-78), Taxi (1978-1982), Hill Street Blues (1981-87), Remington Steele (1982-87), Cheers (1982-1993), and spin-offs from The Mary Tyler Moore Show including Rhoda (1974-78), Phyllis (1975-77), and The Lou Grant Show (1977-1982).

To celebrate Moore’s iconic role as Mary Richards, a statue of her tossing her hat in the air as seen in the iconic show opening was unveiled in downtown Minneapolis in 2002.

Personal Life

Moore was married three times. She married Richard Meeker in 1955, and they had a son, Richard, who was born the following year. After they split in 1961, she then married television executive Grant Tinker. That marriage lasted from 1962 until their divorce in 1981. Tragedy struck the family when Moore’s son, Richard, died from an accidental self-inflicted gunshot wound in 1980. In 1983, she married Robert Levine, a doctor who had treated her mother. They were married until Moore’s death.

During her life, Moore struggled with alcoholism, a disease her mother and father also battled, and not long after she married Levine, she checked herself into the Betty Ford Clinic for treatment. When she was in her early thirties, Moore was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. She became a well-known spokesperson and international advocate for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.

In her later years, Moore battled complications from diabetes including kidney and heart problems and the loss of her vision. In 2011, she faced another health challenge when she had a benign tumor removed from her brain. In 2012, the Screen Actors Guild presented Moore with a lifetime achievement award.

An animal lover and vegetarian, Moore was also an activist, working with organizations including the Humane Society and Farm Sanctuary. She and Bernadette Peters co-founded Broadway Barks in 1999. The group organizes an annual event with Broadway stars to promote pet adoptions from shelters.

Awards and honors

In February 1981, Moore was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actress for her role in the drama film Ordinary People but lost to Sissy Spacek for her role in Coal Miner’s Daughter. In 1981 she won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in a Drama for that role.

Moore received a total of seven Emmy Awards. Four for portraying Mary Richards on MTM Show, two for her portrayal of Laura Petrie.

On Broadway, Moore received a Special Tony Award for her performance in Whose Life Is It Anyway? in 1980, and was nominated for a Drama Desk Award as well. In addition, as a producer, she received nominations for Tony Awards and Drama Desk Awards for MTM’s productions of Noises Off in 1984 and Benefactors in 1986, and won a Tony Award for Best Revival of a Play or Musical in 1985 for Joe Egg.

In 1986, she was inducted into the Television Hall of Fame. In 1987, she received a Lifetime Achievement Award in Comedy from the American Comedy Awards.

Moore’s contributions to the television industry were recognized in 1992 with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The star is located at 7021 Hollywood Boulevard.

On May 8, 2002, Moore was present when cable network TV Land and the City of Minneapolis dedicated a statue in downtown Minneapolis of Mary Richards, her character in The Mary Tyler Moore Show. The statue, by artist Gwendolyn Gillen, was chosen from designs submitted by 21 sculptors. The bronze sculpture was located in front of the Dayton’s department store – now Macy’s – near the corner of 7th Street South and Nicollet Mall. It depicts the iconic moment in the show’s opening credits where Moore tosses her Tam o’ Shanter in the air, in a freeze-frame at the end of the montage. While Dayton’s is clearly seen in the opening sequence, the store in the background of the hat toss is actually Donaldson’s, which was, like Dayton’s, a locally based department store with a long history at 7th and Nicollet. In late 2015, the statue was relocated to the city’s visitor center during renovations; it was reinstalled in its original location in 2017.

Ранние годы

Мур родился в семье Марджори (урожденной Хакетт) и Джорджа Тайлера Мура 29 декабря 1936 года в районе Бруклин-Хайтс в Бруклине, Нью-Йорк, штат Нью-Йорк. Он работал клерком. Ее ирландско-католическая семья проживала во Флэтбуше, Бруклин. Позже Муры проживали по адресу 144-16, 35-я авеню во Флашинге, Квинс, Нью-Йорк.

Мур был старшим из троих детей, у него были младшие братья Джон и Элизабет. Подполковник Льюис Тилман Мур, прадедушка Мура по отцовской линии, владел домом, который сейчас является музеем штаб-квартиры Стоунволла Джексона в Винчестере, штат Вирджиния.

Семья Мур переехала в Лос-Анджелес, Калифорния, когда ей было восемь лет, по совету ее дяди, который работал в MCA. Она была воспитана католичкой и до третьего класса посещала приходскую школу Св. Розы Лимы в Бруклине. Мур учился в школе Святого Амвросия и средней школе Непорочного сердца в районе Лос-Фелис в Лос-Анджелесе.

Младшая сестра Мура Элизабет умерла в возрасте 21 года «от сочетания… обезболивающих и алкоголя». Ее брат умер от рака почки в возрасте 47 лет.

Philanthropy

Moore in 2011

In addition to her acting work, Moore was the International Chairperson of JDRF (the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation). In this role, she used her celebrity status to help raise funds and awareness of diabetes mellitus type 1.

In 2007, in honor of Moore’s dedication to the Foundation, JDRF created the «Forever Moore» research initiative which will support JDRF’s Academic Research and Development and JDRF’s Clinical Development Program. The program works on translating basic research advances into new treatments and technologies for those living with type 1 diabetes.

Moore advocated for animal rights for years and supported charities like the ASPCA and Farm Sanctuary. She helped raise awareness about factory farming methods and promoted more compassionate treatment of farm animals.

Moore appeared as herself in 1996 on an episode of the Ellen DeGeneres sitcom Ellen. The storyline of the episode includes Moore honoring Ellen for trying to save a 65-year-old lobster from being eaten at a seafood restaurant. She was also a co-founder of Broadway Barks, an annual animal adopt-a-thon held in New York City. Moore and friend Bernadette Peters worked to make it a no-kill city and to encourage adopting animals from shelters.

In honor of her father, George Tyler Moore, a lifelong American Civil War enthusiast, in 1995 Moore donated funds to acquire an historic structure in Shepherdstown, West Virginia, for Shepherd College (now Shepherd University) to be used as a center for Civil War studies. The center, named the George Tyler Moore Center for the Study of the Civil War, is housed in the historic Conrad Shindler House (c. 1795), which is named in honor of her great-great-great-grandfather, who owned the structure from 1815 to 1852.

Moore also contributed to the renovation of a historic house in Winchester, Virginia that had been used as headquarters by Confederate Major General Thomas J. «Stonewall» Jackson during his Shenandoah Valley campaign in 1861–62. The house, now known as the Stonewall Jackson’s Headquarters Museum, had been owned by Moore’s great-grandfather, Lieutenant Colonel Lewis Tilghman Moore, commander of the 4th Virginia Infantry in Jackson’s Stonewall Brigade.

Later Theater and Film Work

Moore made several attempts to return to television, including Mary (1978) and New York News (1995), but these shows didn’t catch on with television audiences. Moore continued to have success in other acting endeavors, though. In 1980, she won a Tony Award for her performance in Whose Life Is It Anyway? on Broadway. That year, Moore also received an Academy Award nomination for her portrayal of an emotionally guarded mother in Ordinary People, directed by Robert Redford.

In her later career, she appeared in several television movies: First, You Cry (1978); Heartsounds (1984); Finnegan Begin Again (1985); Lincoln (1988), playing Mary Todd Lincoln; and Stolen Babies (1993), for which she earned another Emmy Award. In 1996, she returned to big-screen comedy playing the adoptive mother of Ben Stiller’s character in Flirting with Disaster (1996), directed by David O. Russell.

Health issues and death

Moore was a recovering alcoholic and had been diagnosed with Type I diabetes in 1969 after having a miscarriage. In 2011, she had surgery to remove a meningioma, a benign brain tumor. In 2014, friends reported that Moore had heart and kidney problems in addition to being nearly blind due to diabetes.

Moore died at the age of 80 on January 25, 2017, at Greenwich Hospital in Greenwich, Connecticut, from cardiopulmonary arrest complicated by pneumonia after having been placed on a ventilator the previous week. She was interred in Oak Lawn Cemetery in Fairfield, Connecticut, during a private ceremony.

Politics

During the 1960s and 1970s, Moore had a reputation as a liberal or moderate, although she endorsed President Richard Nixon for re-election in 1972. She endorsed President Jimmy Carter for re-election in a 1980 campaign television ad. In 2011, her friend and former co-star Ed Asner said during an interview on The O’Reilly Factor that Moore «has become much more conservative of late». Bill O’Reilly, host of that program, stated that Moore had been a viewer of his show and that her political views had leaned conservative in recent years. In a Parade magazine article from March 22, 2009, Moore identified herself as a libertarian centrist who watched Fox News. She stated: «when one looks at what’s happened to television, there are so few shows that interest me. I do watch a lot of Fox News. I like Charles Krauthammer and Bill O’Reilly… If McCain had asked me to campaign for him, I would have.» In an interview for the 2013 PBS series Pioneers of Television, Moore said that she was recruited to join the feminist movement of the 1970s by Gloria Steinem but did not agree with Steinem’s views. Moore said she believed that women have an important role in raising children and that she did not believe in Steinem’s view that women owe it to themselves to have a career.

Personal life

At age 18 in 1955, Moore married 28-year-old salesman Richard Carleton Meeker, and within six weeks she was pregnant with her only child, Richard Jr. (born July 3, 1956). Meeker and Moore divorced in 1962. Later that year, Moore married Grant Tinker, a CBS executive and later chairman of NBC, and in 1970 they formed the television production company MTM Enterprises, which created and produced the company’s first television series, The Mary Tyler Moore Show. Moore and Tinker announced their separation in 1979 and divorced two years later. In the early 1980s, Moore dated Steve Martin and Warren Beatty.

On October 14, 1980, at the age of 24, Moore’s son Richard died of an accidental gunshot to the head while handling a small .410 shotgun. The model was later taken off the market because of its «hair trigger». Three and a half weeks earlier, Ordinary People had been released where she played a mother who was grieving over the accidental death of her son.

Moore married cardiologist Robert Levine  on November 23, 1983, at the Pierre Hotel in New York City. They met when he treated Moore’s mother in New York City on a weekend house call, after Moore and her mother returned from a visit to the Vatican where they had a personal audience with Pope John Paul II. Moore and Levine remained married for 34 years until her death in 2017.

Moore identified as vegetarian, but did eat fish. Rod Preece, a historian of vegetarianism, has described her diet as pescatarian.

Moore presents the JDRF’s Hero’s Award to the US Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert for his role in securing federal funding for type 1 diabetes research in 2003.

«The Dick Van Dyke Show»

Moore became a household name in 1961 when she landed the role of Laura Petrie, one of television’s most beloved wives on The Dick Van Dyke Show, created by Carl Reiner and starring Dick Van Dyke. As the charming Petrie, Moore showed off her flair for comedy and won Emmys in 1964 and 1966 for her work.

After the show ended in 1966, Moore focused on making movie musicals, including Thoroughly Modern Millie (1967), where she played an aspiring actor opposite Julie Andrews, and Change of Habit (1970), starring as a nun who falls in love with a doctor, played by Elvis Presley, as she prepares to take her vows. She also played a dramatic role in the television thriller Run A Crooked Mile (1969), starring opposite Louis Jourdan.

Мэри Тайлер Мур, супруга

Мур вышла замуж за Ричарда Карлтона Микера в 1955 году, и менее чем через год у них родился сын. Пара рассталась в 1962 году, и в конце концов она вышла замуж за руководителя CBS Гранта Тинкера. Их производственная фирма MTM Enterprises была основана в 1970 году. Они развелись в 1981 году, и два года спустя она вышла замуж за доктора Роберта Левина. Они были женаты до ее смерти в 2017 году. Ребенок Мура был убит в результате непреднамеренной стрельбы из крошечного огнестрельного оружия в 1980 году. В конечном итоге модель отозвали из-за наличия спускового крючка для волос. Всю свою жизнь она была борцом за права животных и пескетарианцем. Она делала пожертвования таким организациям, как ASPCA и Farm Sanctuary.
