Marilu Henner's Bio: Marilu Henner has starred on stage, in several hit TV series, films, commercials, television movies and specials. She has co-starred with some of Hollywood’s leading men and worked with some of the best directors in Hollywood and on Broadway.

Marilu started her professional acting career starring in the first national touring company of Grease, later appearing with the Broadway company. This was followed by Over Here, Pal Joey, and later in Social Security directed by Mike Nichols.

Marilu worked on the TV show Taxi, with Judd Hirsch, Danny DeVito, Tony Danza, Christopher Lloyd, Jeff Conaway, Carol Kane, and Andy Kaufman. Later she worked on Evening Shade, side by side with some of the most talented actors around; Burt Reynolds, Charles Durning, Elizabeth Ashley, Michael Jeter, and Hal Holbrook. Finally she converted her ease as a talk-show guest into adeptness as a talk-show host with the Marilu show. Steering the project by relentless curiosity, she undertook issues to explore them, not to exploit them.

As executive producer of the Marilu show, Marilu formed a production company. Its first project included Medicine Ball, an offbeat Fox series, and critically acclaimed ABC Movie of the Week, Abandoned & Deceived, which told the true story of Gerri Jenson, the founder of ACES, an organization which helps trace “deadbeat” dads and moms.

Marilu and Jenson also testified in Washington DC, to support congressional legislation to combat the problem. After seeing the positive results of her support and presence, she starred in another film, Fight For Justice: the Nancy Conn Story. With this project she hoped to shed light on the issue of women who are stalked and battered.

Braiding together her skills, experiences, and resources; Marilu discovered a deep and satisfying role using her entertainment arena. Again using the image of the whole system, she set her eye on worldwide social problems.

This makes sense considering she is the mother of two boys: Nicholas and Joseph. With her second pregnancy she hosted a documentary called We’re Having a Baby. The camera followed Marilu through out her pregnancy and more specifically from a guest spot on Comic Relief to her four a.m. delivery just a few hours later. And believe it or not, even in labor she keeps her comedic timing.

Marilu was featured as a contestant in Donald Trump’s Celebrity Apprentice, where she competed on behalf of The Physicians’ Committee for Responsible Medicine. She also played the leading role in the USA Movie The Governor’s Wife. … Read more
