Mary Tyler Moore was an American actress, producer, and social advocate. She is best known for her television roles on The Dick Van Dyke Show (1961–1966) and The Mary Tyler Moore Show (1970–1977), which "helped define a new vision of American womanhood" and "appealed to an audience facing the new trials of modern-day existence". She won seven Primetime Emmy Awards, three Golden Globe Awards, and two Tony Awards.
