'Brady' Star Reveals Bout With Cocaine, Bulimia

McCormick Says Problems Started At 17

POSTED: 9:21 am CDT March 23, 2007


NEW YORK -- The actress who played Marcia Brady on the classic television sitcom "The Brady Bunch" is revealing some serious issues from her past.

Maureen McCormick told People magazine that she used to snort cocaine and suffer from bulimia.

McCormick, 50, said that the eating disorder came first, when she went back to public school when she was 17.


Then a boyfriend introduced her to cocaine.

McCormick said it became clear she has an "addictive personality."

After several relapses, McCormick said she cleaned up through therapy and faith.

The actress played Marcia on "The Brady Bunch" from 1969 to 1974, and appeared in variety shows and television movies based on the series.

She has also guest-starred on several television series including "Fantasy Island," "The Love Boat," "Touched by an Angel" and "Moesha," and had a recurring role on the daytime drama "Passions."


hmmm Never knew she was in Moesha...

Here's my confession.


Around 10 years ago or so Maureen had a CD. I actually waited in line at Tower Records to meet her and get an autograph.....boxed

I don't think she was high. At least I hope not. She had her daughter with her. I'm such a nerd.

The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp.

Did anyone here get to catch THE REAL LIVE BRADY BUNCH? It was a play that toured all over the U.S. IT WAS HILARIOUS!!!!

These college actors performed different episodes from the show. My favorite was the "Oh my nose" episode. The part where Marcia keeps seeing the ball hit her over and over was hilarious. Because it was live what they did was have the actor say "Oh my nose." Then they would turn off the lights and she would back up and do it again and again. We were in tears.
