Mary Howard de Liagre (née Rogers; May 18, 1913 – June 6, 2009)[1] was an American actress usually credited as Mary Howard, or as Mary Rogers prior to 1937.[1]


Howard came from Tulsa, Oklahoma, and took dancing lessons when she was in kindergarten.[2] She began her entertainment career as a dancer, performing in shows in New York City when she was 14. That talent ran in her family, as two older sisters were in the Ziegfeld Follies.[3]


Howard helped organize the USO in Los Angeles during World War II and toured for returning servicemen.[4]


In 1945, she moved to New York City and married Alfred de Liagre Jr., a film producer who died in 1987. She was a founding member of Recording for the Blind, and served on the boards of the American Academy of Dramatic Arts, and the Princess Grace Foundation.[citation needed]
