Mary Wickes Bio/Wiki, Net Worth, Married 2018

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. She was particularly adroit in film parts that chided the super rich or exceptionally pious, and ...

#Quote
1I love playing good comedy with a heart, comedy which touches the audience.
2I can't stand those who talk only acting. That's pretty bad.
3Women like me. They think I'm wholesome or something.
#Fact
1She was a lifelong Republican and a solid supporter of Ronald Reagan especially.
2Known 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.
3Interred beside her parents at the Shiloh Valley Cemetery in Shiloh, Illinois.
4Played 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).
5Was a volunteer at the Hospital of the Good Samaritan in Los Angeles for years.
6More 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.
7Was 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.
8Mary originated the role of "Mary Poppins" on CBS-TV in 1949.
9She served as the live-action reference model for the villainous Cruella De Vil in Disney's animated feature 101 Dalmatians (1961).
10She was a sister in Phi Mu Fraternity, Zeta Epsilon Chapter (Washington University, St. Louis, Missouri).
11Mary and Lucille Ball were neighbors and the closest of friends for decades.
12She appeared as her Sister Act (1992) character in Lady Soul's "If My Sister's In Trouble" music video.
13Perhaps 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).
