Born Lisa Ann DeCinces on Feb. 16, 1958, in the Marshall Islands, Loring’s parents divorced when she was very young and she later came to live in Los Angeles with her mother. She was given the stage name Lisa Loring and started modeling at age three.
Her first television appearance came in 1964, in an episode of the NBC medical dramaAfter winning the part of Wednesday in ABC’s, MGM-produced live-action television adaptation of Charles Addams’cartoons, Loring began work on the half-hour comedy series at age 5 and a half, revealing in later interviews that she “learned to memorize before I could read” in order to say her lines. At fan conventions and in several interviews, Loring has spoken fondly of her time working on The Addams Family.
A “stroke”, eh?
👹
Rest in Peace to the original!
She played the character for only two years but set the template for live-action portrayals of Wednesday and was recently praised as an inspiration for Jenna Ortega’s interpretation on the hit Netflix series 'Wednesday.' More:
One correction on this obit: The Addams Family was not 'MGM-produced.' It was produced by Filmways, an independent company. MGM eventually bought their library and now owns the rights.
I was REALLY hoping she’d play Grandmama Addams in Season 2 of Wednesday!

This woman got so hosed by all the people who used her image and dance as Wednesday Adams to promote products and websites and enrich themselves it’s disgusting.
I remember watching her as Cricket Montgomery on As The World Turns in the early 80s.
Lisa thank you for entertaining me through a sometimes adverse childhood as R.I.P
Died on Sunday…ironic.
😞😢
Rip 🙏🙏🙏
