'Brady Bunch' star tells of addiction, depression - Snowboarding Forum

**truebluefan** · 10-13-2008, 04:09 PM

As Marcia Brady on "The Brady Bunch," Maureen McCormick projected an image of the wholesome girl next door. But off camera, she spiraled downward into drug addiction and depression.

Now 52, McCormick writes about her struggles in a new memoir, "Here's the Story: Surviving Marcia Brady and Finding My True Voice," hitting stores Tuesday.

She discusses her romance with TV sibling Barry Williams, her dates with Michael Jackson and Steve Martin, cocaine binges and parties at the Playboy Mansion and the home of Sammy Davis Jr., an unwanted pregnancy and trading sex for drugs.

McCormick was 14 when "The Brady Bunch" debuted on ABC, running from 1969 to 1974.

I gotta ask, what prompted you to post this thread? Isn't this just another example (among thousands) of a celebrity getting caught up is some sort of addiction, whether it be drugs, alcohol or I guess even sex if you're David Duchovney?

Not busting on you, just curious as to why this story in particular sparked your interest.
