Biography:Ever since the '50s, each generation has had its definitive sitcom mom, the one woman who symbolizes the attitudes and ideals of the American household (at least according to the major networks). In the late '50s, it was "Barbara Billingsley"; "Donna Reed" ruled the '60s; "Roseanne" repped the '80s; and "Florence Henderson" was queen of the '70s. As Carol Brady, she was the polyester-clad personification of the "have a nice day" mentality on the "Brady Bunch" (1969-1974). Prior to becoming Mrs. Brady, Henderson had worked on television during the '50s, getting her start as the "Today Girl" on "Today" (1952) and as a regular on "Sing Along" (1958). She also made frequent appearances on the Tonight Show through the early '60s. Henderson was a successful star of Broadway musicals and in 1970, she starred in the musical feature-film biography of Scandinavian composer "Edvard Grieg", "Song of Norway"... Full Biography
