  • Bio

    Mary HD (Singer/Songwriter, Former Fashion Model, Entrepreneur).......... Mary HD's ambitions began at the age of 3. She was enrolled for dancing lessons at The Astra Dance Club and then progressed onto Pat Eakets School of Dance. Mary excelled in poetry at an early age, which ultimately developed into song writing. Mary always showed a natural ability in acting and later received an A* for her GCSE performance playing the role of a teen runaway. She then continued to pursue her acting career and landed various roles in tv/film such as Hollyoaks, Clocking off and The Parole Officer-to name a few...... Mary also embarked on a career in modelling, which she began at the age of 15. She took part in various charity fashion shows and was recruited by a number of model agencies.

Her first major advertising campaigns came at the age of 19. Mary fronted many campaigns for leading brands, such as SOS and Jonny Q, which saw her travel to Italy and Spain. Mary continued her modelling career to feature in TV commercials, including the now very famous GHD hair straighteners, and made appearances on TV shows, which aired on channel 4/E4, which led Mary to be given the 'Most popular' title due to her endearing personality. As a result, Mary was invited to present 'Shop Manchester' for Channel M. Throughout this period, Mary relentlessly continued her song writing, which unbeknown to her was to become her true path! .................................................................... Mary HD caught the attention of Fred Jerkins of Darkchild Entertainment Campus (Michael Jackson (R.I.P) Mariah Carey) who immediately recognized the potential in Mary after viewing her website and saw that she loved to perform and song write......................
