About Harvey's guest:


Today’s guest, Melissa Sue Anderson, is a popular actress who is perhaps best remembered for her Emmy nominated portrayal of “Mary Ingalls” on the iconic TV series, “Little House on the Prairie”.


In fact, she’s the ONLY cast member of that show to be nominated for an Emmy award in the acting category. But beyond her work on “Little House”, our guest has appeared in a number of feature films including “Chattanooga Choo Choo”, “Dead Men Don’t Die”, and “Happy Birthday to Me”, for which she was nominated for a Young Artist Award.


She’s also guest starred in dozens of TV shows including “The Brady Brunch”, “Shaft”, “Fantasy Island”, “Murder She Wrote”, “Hotel”, “The Equalizer”, “Alfred Hitchcock Presents”, “Burke’s Law”, “Partners” and many more. And she’s appeared in numerous TV movies and miniseries including “The Loneliest Runner”, “Survival of Dana”, “Midnight Offerings”, “An Innocent Love”, “First Affair”, “Dark Mansions”, “Memories of Manon”, “Earthquake in New York”, “10 Point 5: Apocalypse” and many more. She won a Daytime Emmy Award for her performance in an episode of the ABC After School Special called “Which Mother is Mine”.


In 1980, our guest won a 'TP de Oro' Award, considered to be Spain's most prestigious award for television, for 'Best Foreign Actress' for her performance in “Little House on the Prairie”. She was also nominated for a Photoplay Award in 1977 for Favourite Child Star, and together with her “Little House” cast mates, she won a Western Heritage Award for Best Fictional Television Drama, and in 1998 she was inducted into the Western Performers Hall of Fame.


In 2010, she wrote a highly compelling and insightful memoir entitled “The Way I See It: A Look Back at My Life on Little House”.


And if all of that weren’t enough, in 2008, she was nominated for a TV Land Award in the category of “Favourite Character You Would Pay to do Your Homework for You”.
