From the grand old school of wisecracking, loud and lanky Mary Wickes had few peers while forging a career as a salty scene-stealer. Her abrupt, tell-it-like-it-is demeanor made her a consistent audience favorite on every medium for over six decades.

# Quote 1 I love playing good comedy with a heart, comedy which touches the audience. 2 I can't stand those who talk only acting. That's pretty bad. 3 Women like me. They think I'm wholesome or something.
# Fact 1 She was a lifelong Republican and a solid supporter of Ronald Reagan especially. 2 Known for the Nurse Preen role from the story "The Man Who Came to Dinner", Mary Wickes portrayed her in the original Broadway production in 1939, the movie version, a television series and in the 1972 Hallmark Hall of Fame production. 3 Interred beside her parents at the Shiloh Valley Cemetery in Shiloh, Illinois. 4 Played a bus driving nun in two movie franchises: as Sister Clarissa in The Trouble with Angels (1966) and its sequel Where Angels Go Trouble Follows! (1968), and as Sister Mary Lazarus in Sister Act (1992) and its sequel Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit (1993). 5 Was a volunteer at the Hospital of the Good Samaritan in Los Angeles for years. 6 More than 30 years after a role that brought her fame on Broadway, she once again played the role of Nurse Preen ("Miss Bedpan") in a special TV version of The Man Who Came to Dinner (1972), with Orson Welles replacing the late Monty Woolley in the role of Sheridan Whiteside. 7 Was given an honorary Doctor of Arts from her alma mater, Washington University, in 1969. She earned her Master's degree at UCLA when she was in her 80s. 8 Mary originated the role of "Mary Poppins" on CBS-TV in 1949. 9 She served as the live-action reference model for the villainous Cruella De Vil in Disney's animated feature 101 Dalmatians (1961). 10 She was a sister in Phi Mu Fraternity, Zeta Epsilon Chapter (Washington University, St. Louis, Missouri). 11 Mary and Lucille Ball were neighbors and the closest of friends for decades. 12 She appeared as her Sister Act (1992) character in Lady Soul's "If My Sister's In Trouble" music video. 13 Perhaps remembered best as Nurse Preen, opposite a delightfully irascible Monty Woolley , in William Keighley 's The Man Who Came to Dinner (1942) or, on TV, as Miss Cathcart in Dennis the Menace (1959) (1959-1963).
