Born 1918 in San Francisco, California, American actress Marjorie Lord made her Broadway debut in The Old Maid with Judith Anderson. Her other Broadway appearances came in Signature (1945), Little Brown Jug (1946), and The Girl in the Freudian Slip (1967).
Lord played Kathy “Clancy” O’Hara Williams, opposite Danny Thomas’s character on The Danny Thomas Show (Make Room for Daddy). Although most of Lord’s success came in television, she said in 1963: “I am primarily a stage actress. That's what I was trained to do and that’s my first love.”
Lord remained active beyond her 90th birthday. She died in 2015, aged 97, at her home in Beverly Hills, California. Lord has a star in the television section of the Hollywood Walk of Fame, at 6317 Hollywood Boulevard. The star was dedicated on February 8, 1960.
