Biographie
Mary Therese Cadorette, born on March 31, 1957, is an American actress best known for portraying Vicky Bradford, the flight attendant and live-in girlfriend of John Ritter's character, on the short-lived 1984 spinoff of Three's Company, Three's a Crowd.
Born in East Hartford, Connecticut, Cadorette began dance lessons at age five and later competed in dance competitions, crediting her passion for dance with shaping her career. She was Miss Connecticut in the 1975 Miss America pageant and graduated from the University of Connecticut in 1979. Following graduation, she performed in dinner theaters and with the USO, and spent three and a half years on Broadway as an understudy in the musical 42nd Street. In 1990, she secured the recurring role of Margaret Turner on Night Court. During the 1990s, she owned a Los Angeles restaurant called Mary's Lamb, popular among celebrities.
Her film credits include Stewardess School (1986) and The Rat Pack (1998). Throughout the 1980s, she appeared on several game shows, such as The $25,000 Pyramid, Super Password, and Body Language.
In 1999, Cadorette returned to Connecticut to care for her mother after a stroke; her mother passed away eight years later. Along with two longtime friends from dance school, she revived their passion for dance by founding The Chapeau Rouge Dance Project, which encourages former and older dance students to attend classes at their rented studio.
She was married to Michael Eisen in 1982; the marriage ended in divorce. Later, she married William Harris (born March 16, 1948) and adopted the name Mary Cadorette-Harris. Harris passed away on October 15, 2010.
In March 2011, Cadorette directed and choreographed Hairspray at Glastonbury High School in Glastonbury, Connecticut. The following year, she directed 42nd Street at the same school, incorporating some of the original choreography.
She teaches tap and ensemble classes at the Greater Hartford Academy of the Arts in Hartford, CT, and owns Nug and Bug Antiques & Collectibles, an antique store located at 45 North Main Street, Marlborough, CT 06447.
On November 1, 2015, she married her seventh-grade sweetheart, Michael Daly, and now goes by Mary Cadorette-Daly.
