Meredith Baxter – Born in 1947

When it comes to classic TV moms, Meredith Baxter holds a special place in pop culture history. She first popped onto the radar in the early 1970s with “Bridget Loves Bernie,” but true fame came a few years later with the hit drama “Family.” Her portrayal of Nancy earned her critical praise, proving she could carry emotional weight with ease.
Then in 1982, she became America’s favorite on-screen mom as Elyse Keaton on “Family Ties,” balancing humor, heart, and chaos opposite a young Michael J. Fox. Beyond sitcoms, she tackled bold roles in TV movies like “Kate’s Secret” and “A Woman Scorned,” showing off serious dramatic chops.
