MARY WALSH Hard-won wisdom

An iconic legend of Canadian television comedy, a published author, a high-profile spokesperson for mental health advocacy and a loyal Newfoundlander to the end—from the outside, Mary Walsh appears to have it all together. But in this wide-ranging conversation, the deeply intelligent and relentlessly funny Walsh is candid about the sea of unknowns she faces as a mother, a recovering addict, and an independent artist; and about the hard-won wisdom that helps keep her feeling positive in the face of hard things.

Mary is nominated for two Canadian Screen Awards this year: Best Performance in a Supporting Role, and Best Lead Performer In A Comedy. You can catch Mary later this year on the upcoming MGM series The Institute, based on the Stephen King novel.
