BIOGRAPHY: [no bio found]
TRIVIA:
- Best known as the person who shot J.R. in her role of Kristen Shepherd, in _"Dallas" (1978)_ (qv).
- Her father once appeared on a 'Barbara Walters' (qv) program threatening to disown Mary if she ever lived with a man before marrying him. He died in October 1977 and Mary went on live with her first husband, 'Eb Lottimer' (qv) before they married in November of 1978.
- Niece of 'Bob Crosby (I)' (qv)
- Entered the University of Texas at Austin at 16, but dropped out before graduating.
- Member of Delta Delta Delta sorority, Theta Zeta chapter at the University of Texas at Austin.
- She made cult TV history enacting the role of Kristin Shepard (Sue Ellen Ewing's scheming sister) on the TV series _"Dallas" (1978)_ (qv). Her character was one of several suspects in the 1980 cliffhanger ending. Shot by an unknown assailant, viewers had to wait the entire summer (and most of the fall due to a Hollywood actors' strike) to learn who J.R.'s assailant was. During the summer, the question, "Who shot J.R.?", was part of water cooler conversations around the world. Ultimately, Crosby's character was revealed as the culprit in the classic "Who Done It?" episode that aired on November 21, 1980. It was one of the highest-rated episodes of a TV show ever aired. Crosby's character later crossed over to the TV series _"Knots Landing" (1979)_ (qv), and then returned to "Dallas" in 1981, where she was eventually found drowned in the Southfork Ranch swimming pool.
- Daughter of 'Bing Crosby' (qv) and 'Kathryn Grant (I)' (qv)
- Cousin of 'Chris Crosby (I)' (qv) and 'Cathy Crosby' (qv)
