Mary Tyler Moore was a talented woman. She started at a very young age as a dancer. In the 50s, she was the "Hotpoint" elf in the tv commercial. In 1957, she played the seductive telephone receptionist on "Richard Diamond, Private Detective," but all you ever saw were her legs ! She was a loving mother who lost her only son from an accident. She never acted like a celebrity. I know, I worked with her once in 1965 on a "Danny Thomas Special" when I was 19. She was very kind to me and she was the guest star. A few years later, I ran into her in Century City while she was shooting a new show called "The Mary Tyler Moore Show". During a break in filming, she spotted me and called me over and asked how I was doing. I was pretty impressed that she even remembered me. Her comic timing was priceless. Her dramatic acting ability was given it's due when she was nominated for an Academy Award in 1980 for Best Actress in "Ordinary People." She is now part of Television History. Forever one of those young women that showed the way in the 60s and 70s.
So glad you wrote this piece of history about you and Mary! She was nothing short of perfection in my book ! When I look back on my TV viewing, my favorite comedy sitcom was her show from the 70s! The talent the writing direction and producing and supporting actors were like a dream come true in so many ways!
On a Saturday night in 1970 was crazy to go out when such talent was on tv! I was caught in the time of the very best television of all time and I realized it at the time that comedy TV shows were at their prime as television would never be able to capture the excellence in TV viewing ever again......I miss the quality comedy shows of the 70s and I knew that TV would never capture the excellence of the comedy shows ever again from what the 70s presented!

The world was a brighter place because of Mary Tyler Moore. Her life was made brighter by Dr. Levine.
And now some of Mary's most beautiful possessions will brighten the lives of those who will purchase and enjoy the items.
These jewels are so beautiful and it’s amazing to see before they go back into a private collection!
Just a small side note. Lucille Ball regularly wore pants on the I Love Lucy show. However, Mary was the first within the timeframe that is referred to.
So Lucy was still the first though right?
I can’t imagine having to part with things so personal that they represent one’s departed spouse in material form. Even after some time has passed. This is a truly charitable act and to be commended.
First thoughts: why sell such personal items? Why is all of her jewelry being sold off? These pieces should be heirlooms kept within her family. My 2 cents.
She has no female offspring.
LOVE the cuff bracelet & earrings!
I miss her so❤
아주멋찌고 아름답운보석들 입니다 😊😊😊
Fabulous, fabulous, FABULOUS
Love Elsa Perretti
Liza still wears her Peretti cuffs.
Wonder how many young women got into the news business because of her
😂
R.I.P.
I wonder if she had any idea how many women were inspired by her?
who is that strange guy who kept pushing the idea that "she is the modern woman who didn't need to be gifted or get married". The facts are she was married almost continuously from 1955 onward to the day she died to three different guys so it's likely she like guys and she liked being married. I guess the last distinguished gentleman was her closest match, picks get better with age. She also was probably rich to begin with, and what wealthy person needs to be gifted anything since they already have money. So maybe go take a look at the facts before telling us a bunch of nonsense-propaganda.
He's likely referring to her character in the MTM show, who did not marry. Mary did not come from a wealthy family; her father was a clerk in Brooklyn.
@@margaretross9150 She was Dick van Dykes wife while in her early 20s and people in Hollywood make a lot of money doing these things. MTM show she was doing her job in a TV station, and I think they kept her single to be more appealing to guys who watched the show, marrying her would not have been a great thing for the show. She was feminite and lovely. This guy is trying to portray her as a rachel zegler feminist and it's nonsense.
@@nathanielalgernon975 I agree with you...
Reading one of the books on Mary and her MTM show, it was written that she felt she had to walk a fine line between showing a flawed,yet independent woman in all her wonderful, sometimes clumsy humanness as Mary Richards, and also feeling she had to answer to the increasingly vocal feminists in the early 70s...
She started getting invited to all sorts of feminist panels and lunches, and she was not entirely comfortable with them because she felt they thought her character should become more vocal about women's rights and "give it back" to the men more, on the show
She knew they had an agenda, so she participated at the barest minimum while continuing to run her show and play her character exactly as *she* wanted to play her. And I love her for that...
Did you write her biography? Sounds like you think you know it all. Propaganda is a strong word!!!!!😮
@maryfendley1084 He's actually partly right. The entire feminist movement in the mid-60s was carefully designed social engineering, meant to divide men and women and erode the nuclear family
How very sad to see her things on the block! I’m sure her husband will donate to charity.
Das meiste is nur Gerede.
I am of an age to have seen the early work of MTM on television; 8 years old when Dick Van Dyke began; and much of her work thereafter. I never thought of her having jewels, as it was her work that I admired. It is nice to see this presentation and sale.
Ooohhh that heavy thick gold ring with the emerald cut diamond.
Mary Tyler Moore opened many doors for women! Her jewelry is spectacular!
I always felt that Sotheby’s is like the various ants that devour a body after it dies- it’s even stranger having her husband introduce the jewelry.
This is the sweetest reflection of a lovely inspiring model of grace. Thankyou Mary Tyler Moore for so many laughs& heartfelt moments growing up.
Loved the Mary persona, she was her own person but always came across as lovely and feminite in her shows.
She inspired many women
Let’s see how many time I can say independent woman.
MTM 4 EVER❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Why would her husband sell her jewelry? Why? His Beloved wife.
Does he need the money? Or simply
He wants to forget her nd move on?
To benefit her foundation…did you listen😂?
The Diamond Necklace is a classic
Much of it isn't my taste and so I'd only buy these for their future appreciated value. A few pieces do interest me but I have nowhere to wear them, lol. These auctions are fascinating because I have the opportunity to see what some of my favorite actresses once owned and enjoyed, jewelry-wise.
Nothing lasts forever except our Lord Jesus Christ.
Adored MTM❤
Amazing
I always love seeing Frank justify and put all pieces into historical context
