Mari Gorman had her first professional role in Arnold Wesker’s The Kitchen, directed by Jack Gelber, with Rip Torn. She has won Obie Awards for three acting performances: in Walking to Waldheim, by Mayo Simon, directed by George L. Sherman at Lincoln Center; The Memorandum, by Vaclev Havel, directed by Joseph Papp at The Public Theatre; and The Hot L Baltimore, by Lanford Wilson, directed by Marshall W. Mason at The Circle In-the-Square (with Circle Repertory Company), for which she also received the Theatre World Award, Drama Desk Award and Clarence Derwent Award. Other highlights include the lead role of The Girl in The Red Convertible, by Enrique Buenaventura, in the premiere production of The Third Stage (Tom Patterson Theatre) at Stratford Shakespeare Festival, Ontario; the role of Pam in the American premiere of Saved by Edward Bond, with the Yale Repertory Theatre; and the role of Kathy in the world premiere of Moonchildren (originally titled Cancer) by Michael Weller at The Royal Court Theatre in London. She has acted in numerous television series and has taught acting on both coasts. She has directed several productions in New York and LA, where she won a Drama-Logue Award for her direction of Vanities, by Jack Heifner. After Hot L, she began a formal investigation of acting that has led to many discoveries with value in fields of study in addition to acting. In 2007 she published Strokes of Existence: The Connection of All Things, which is about this work. She is currently pursuing a Master's Degree in Transformations of Modernity at The Graduate Center, CUNY.
One of her first major screen roles was as murder victim and mob pawn Taffy Simms on the television soap opera ''The Edge of Night'' in the 1970s. She was a cast member of the Barbara Eden sitcom ''Harper Valley PTA'', playing PTA member, Vivian Washburn, and was one of the informal repertory company of the 1970s and 1980s sitcom ''Barney Miller'', on which she made a half-dozen appearances, including as an amateur prostitute housewife (in Series 4 Episode 3, "Bugs") and as a police detective with a jealous husband (in Series 4, Episode 18, "Wojo's Problem" and other episodes). She has also had numerous recurring or guest starring roles in many other television shows.
She has produced and directed theater in New York and Los Angeles, and teaches acting. She also founded the New York City theater company Glass Beads Theatre Ensemble. In 2003, she produced and directed ''Cries for Peace'', composed of firsthand accounts of Hiroshima and Nagasaki atomic bomb survivors. She produced and directed playwright Michael Locascio's Glass Beads Theatre production ''Lily of the Conservative Ladies'', staged at the June Havoc Theatre; and she produced, directed and, with Danna Call and Craig Pospisil, co-wrote ''Browsing'', performed as part of the 2011 New York International Fringe Festival.
