Heather MacRae (born October 5, 1946)[1] is an American actress known for her role in the Woody Allen 1972 comedy Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex* (*But Were Afraid to Ask).[2]

Early years

MacRae is the daughter of motion picture, stage, and television stars Sheila MacRae and Gordon MacRae.[3][4][5] Meredith MacRae was her sister,[6] and she has two brothers, Bruce and Gar.[7]

She studied at the University of Colorado but left academics to pursue a career in show business.[7]

Career

MacRae's film career included roles in

Starsky and Hutch, Frasier, and The Sopranos[citation needed] and as the judge who marries Miranda and Steve in an outdoor ceremony on Sex and the City. She has played continuing roles on the daytime serials The Best of Everything and One Life to Live.[8]

A veteran of the Broadway stage, she has appeared in Hair, A Catered Affair, and Falsettos.[9]

In 1983, MacRae and her mother had a cabaret act at the Inner Circle in New York City. A review in The New York Times called the two "the oddest cabaret couple", noting that their styles of entertainment differed and that they alternated in the spotlight rather than performing together.[10] MacRae performed a solo cabaret show, Songs of My Father, in Chicago in 1999. In it, she sang songs associated with her father and told about his experiences in music.[11]
