About Harvey's guest:

Today’s special guest, Marsha Mason, special guest is a legendary and beloved actress and director whose iconic career and body of work over the past 6 decades has brought us dozens of unforgettable performances.

On Broadway, she appeared in 8 shows including “Cactus Flower”, “The Good Doctor”, “The Night of the Iguana”, “Steel Magnolias”, and “The Roommate”. Her list of theatre credits is spectacular, and she’s starred in everything from Shakespeare and Ibsen to Arthur Miller, Lillian Hellman and of course, Neil Simon - and everyone in between. Her performance off-Broadway in "Little Gem" earned her an Outer Critics Circle Award for Outstanding Performance by an Actress in a Play, and her starring role in the 1999 revival of “The Prisoner of Second Avenue” in London, earned her a Grammy Award nomination for Best Comedy Album.

But there’s no question that she became a global superstar for her work in the movies. She’s received FOUR Academy Award nominations for Best Actress, for her performances in “Cinderella Liberty”, “The Goodbye Girl”, “Chapter Two” and “Only When I Laugh”. She’s won 2 Golden Globe Awards for Best Actress for her work in “Cinderella Liberty” and “The Goodbye Girl”, and she received 2 more Golden Globe Award nominations for her work in “Chapter Two” and “Promises in the Dark”. She’s also appeared in many other great movies including “Audrey Rose”, “Max Dugan Returns”, “Heartbreak Ridge”, “Stella”, “I Love Trouble”, “Nick of Time” and “Bride and Prejudice.

On television, she starred in her own sitcom called “Sibs”, and she received an Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Guest Actress in a Comedy Series for her performance as “Sherry” on “Frasier”. You’ve also seen her in many other shows including “Lipstick Jungle”, “The Good Wife”, “Madam Secretary” and “Grace and Frankie”, and in TV movies and miniseries like “The Good Doctor”, “Lois Gibbs and the Love Canal”, “Trapped in Silence”, “Dinner at Eight”, “The Long Shot”, and one of my all-time favourites, “Life With Judy Garland: Me and My Shadows”.

In the year 2000, our guest released a compelling and highly revealing, profoundly intimate memoir entitled, “Journey: A Personal Odyssey”, which chronicled her professional, personal and spiritual path which ultimately took her from the heights of Hollywood fame to a new life focussing on physical and emotional wellness in New Mexico. In addition to the myriad of accolades and awards she has received over the years, including a Lifetime Achievement Award at the Gulf Coast Film Festival, our guest was inducted into the St. Louis Walk of Fame. She is constantly in demand not only as an actress, but as a highly respected theatre director and educator.
