Rea Max
Born on July 28th, 1948 in Washington, D.C., Georgia received a degree from the University of Hawaii before going on to appear in a number of musical productions, including off-Broadway shows in New York City.
There can be no doubting that her breakthrough role, however, was as Georgette Baxter on The Mary Tyler Moore Show. Joining the show during its third season, she remained a popular member of the cast until it finished in 1977.
Georgia followed up The Mary Tyler Moore Show with appearances on The Betty White Show, Goodtime Girls, and Jennifer Slept Here. She also featured in Everybody Loves Raymond and Hot in Cleveland later on, with the former earning her three Emmy nominations for outstanding guest actress in a comedy series.
