Mary Wiseman (born July 30, 1985) is an American actress. She is best known for starring as Sylvia Tilly in the Paramount+ science fiction drama series Star Trek: Discovery (2017–2024).[1]

Early life

[edit]

Wiseman is the youngest daughter of Dorothy and Kevin Wiseman and has three older brothers. She grew up in Milford, Pennsylvania and Gaithersburg, Maryland. Wiseman attended the DC Shakespeare Theatre’s high school outreach program. She graduated from Quince Orchard High School in 2003 and later earned her BFA in Theatre Arts at Boston University.[2][3] She went on to study at Juilliard School's Drama Division between 2011 and 2015, where one of her classmates was future Star Trek: Discovery cast member Mary Chieffo.[4][5][2]

Career

[edit]

Wiseman's stage roles have included Nitzan Halperin's Sow and Weep (2008, Boston University College of Fine Arts in New York),[6] Ariel Carson's I Wanted it to Have a How & I Wanted it to Have a Verb (2011, Dixon Place)[7] and Betsy/Lindsay in Clybourne Park (2013, Chautauqua Theater Company).[8]

Wiseman has performed in productions and workshops of new plays in Playwrights’ theatres like PS 122, The Public, Soho Rep, and New York Theatre Workshop.[2]

Wiseman appeared in the television series Longmire as Meg Joyce, a nurse and love interest for the character Archie "The Ferg" Ferguson.[9]

In 2022, Wiseman's portrayal of the character Carlo from the Off-Broadway play At The Wedding garnered her a Lucille Lortel Award nomination in the category of Outstanding Lead Performer in a Play.[10]

In February 2023, it was announced that Mary was cast in an upcoming Shondaland series The Residence as the White House executive chef Marvella.[11]

It was announced at the 2024 San Diego Comic-Con that Wiseman will reprise the role of Sylvia Tilly in the upcoming Star Trek: Starfleet Academy series.[12]

Personal life

[edit]

In 2013, Wiseman began dating actor Noah Averbach-Katz who was her Juilliard School classmate. The couple married on February 16, 2019.[3] Wiseman filed for divorce in March 2023. The divorce was finalized in October 2023.[13]

Wiseman identifies as queer, stating: "Before Noah, I dated and loved people of all genders. I never liked it when straight-presenting women dominated conversations about bisexuality/pansexuality when I was with women, so I try not to do it now, but I also don’t want it to feel like I’m hiding anything because I’m queer and proud!"[14]
