Cindy Morgan, who starred in movies like TRON and Caddy Shack died at the age of 69. The news came out of Florida from the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s office, which confirmed the news saying the actress had died of natural causes. It is believed that she died on December 30, 2023. The Sheriff’s office did not confirm this, however.
Morgan started her movie career in 1980’s Caddyshack. In the movie, she played Lacey Underall, the bombshell niece of judge and country club founder who was played by Ted Knight. She starred alongside Chevy Chase, Rodney Dangerfield, and Bill Murray in the film that was directed by Harold Ramis.
“‘Caddyshack’ was my first film and I’ll say that the end product was so completely different, it was originally about the caddies,” Morgan said in a 2012 interview. “So at first, I had nothing to lose to audition. It was fun. All I did was focus on making the person sweat. Look ’em in the eye, do that thing many women know how to do.”
Two years later she starred in 1982’s TRON as computer programmer Lora and digital counterpart named Yori. She appeared with Jeff Bridges, Bruce Boxleitner, David Warner, and Barnard Hughes. It was one of the first films to utilize CGI. The movie saw moderate success at the box office but as time went by it became a cult classic. In 2003, she returned to the world of Tron for the video game Tron 2.0. In this first person shooter, she voiced the artificial intelligence Ma3a.
Throughout her career, Morgan also appeared in an extensive list of television shows. This includes The Love Boat, Vega$, Chips, Bring ‘Em Back Alive, Hawaiian Heat, Masquerade, The Fall Guy, Tough Cookies, Beverly Hills Buntz, Falcon Crest, Matlock, Mancuso, FBI, Hunter and The Larry Sanders Show. She also had other film and television movie credits as well throughout the course of her career.
It is unknown if Morgan was survived by any family members.
