Mary was the only daughter of famous actor and singer Bing Crosby and his second wife, actress Kathryn Grant. Upon matriculating from high school, Mary enrolled at the University of Texas in Austin, Texas, but abandoned her studies after her freshman year to pursue her acting career full time.

Being the daughter of legendary performer Bing Crosby, it is no wonder that Mary debuted as an actress at the age of only eight, when in 1967 she appeared in one episode of “The Danny Thomas Hour” TV series, which was followed by the title role of Goldilocks in the 1970 eponymous TV series. In 1978 Mary appeared in the TV movie “With This Ring” which was followed by the role of Leslie Slate in one episode of “Starsky and Hutch”. A year later she starred as Suzy Cooper in “Brothers and Sisters” TV series, and these engagements provided the basis for young Mary Crosby’s net worth.

The real breakthrough in Mary’s acting career occurred in 1979, when she was cast for the memorable role of Kristin Shepard in the “Dallas” TV series. Appearing in 27 episodes of the show between 1979 and 1981 helped Mary Crosby to dramatically increase not only her fame and popularity, but net worth as well. The episode “Who Done It?” in which it was revealed that Mary’s character murdered J.R. Ewing, still holds the record for being the most-watched and highest-rated episode of a TV show ever.

Ever since, she has managed to maintain an uninterrupted streak of acting engagements, including starring in several other popular 1980s TV series such as “Dick Turpin”, “The Fall Guy”, “Hollywood Wives” as well as “Hotel”, “The Love Boat” and “North and South, Book II”. It is certain that all these achievements made a significant impact on Mary Crosby’s net worth.

Apart from television, Mary has also added several notable movie appearances to her acting portfolio, such as, besides those already mentioned above, “Midnight Lace” (1981), “Corporate Affairs” (1990), “The Berlin Conspiracy” (1992), “The Night Caller” (1998) and more recently “The M Word” (2014).

When it comes to her personal life, Mary Crosby has married twice – between 1978 and 1989, she was married to actor and director Ed Lottimer, and since 1998 Mary has been married to Mark Brodka with whom she has two children.
