Originally from Elm Grove, Wisconsin, Mary graduated from The University of Wisconsin - Green Bay, receiving the Chancellor's Medallion for her acting, writing and directing. She and Amy (Ketchum) Holterman formed "The Flying Napkins" presenting comedy to promote social awareness in health and sex education. In 2021, Mary was presented with UWGB's Distinguished Alumni Award.
As a stage actor, her performances of Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf, King Lear, Tartuffe, and In Circles gained her a nomination for the American College Theatre Festival's Irene Ryan Award, and she also took first place in the 15 Minutes of FEM competition at the Egyptian Theater in Hollywood, playing her character Shelby Gratt.
After graduating from UWGB, Mary trained at Second City of Chicago and toured nationally with the improvisation group Wavelength. She was a lead in Rob Reiner's NBC pilot Everyday Life and Jason Alexander's Let Bob Do It for Nickelodeon, and she was the host of the pilot The Short Show for E! Networks, the co-host of Game Show Network's cult classic Faux Pause, and co-host of NBC/PAX-TV's World Cup Comedy (with Dan O'Connor), produced by Kelsey Grammer.
In 2018 Mary had her national television stand-up comedy debut on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. Other filmed stand-up comedy performances include Amazon's Laugh After Dark and a 2022 Dry Bar Comedy special.
