Marion Caroline Dougherty (February 9, 1923 – December 4, 2011) was an American casting director. She is known for casting films such as The World of Henry Orient, Midnight Cowboy, Me, Natalie, Panic in Needle Park, Grease, Urban Cowboy, The World According to Garp, and Batman.
Marion Dougherty is also the primary subject of Casting By, a 2012 documentary, combining over 230 interviews, extensive archival footage, animated stills and documents to tell her untold tale. Dedicated to her memory, Dougherty died before the film's release.
Dougherty attended Penn State University, where she was a member of Kappa Alpha Theta.[1] Dougherty's career in the performing arts began when, after graduating from Penn State in 1943, she had a brief stint working at the Cleveland Playhouse as an actress. She then moved to New York City, just as live television was becoming mainstream. She was making window displays at Bergdorf Goodman when a fellow Penn State alum, who had been recently hired into the casting department at Kraft Television Theatre, hired her as an assistant.[2]
In 1991, many prominent filmmakers and actors, including Clint Eastwood, Woody Allen and Al Pacino, attempted to convince the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to grant an honorary award to Dougherty. Unfortunately this dream of recognizing her was never accomplished, before her death in 2011.[3]
In 1963 Dougherty established her own casting company in New York, where she began casting local talent out of the theaters.[2] Dougherty became notable for her casting decisions, choosing to cast based on their acting abilities, as opposed to type casting based on appearance.[3]
Out of her brownstone, Dougherty worked on many Hollywood films, including The World of Henry Orient, Hawaii, and Midnight Cowboy.[2] In 1972 with the release of Slaughterhouse-Five, Dougherty made history as being one of the first casting directors to receive an entire title card to list their credit.[2] From 1979 to 1999, Dougherty worked at Warner Brothers as the Vice President of casting.[18]
Other notable actors that Dougherty gave their first film credit to include Glenn Close in The World According to Garp,[19] Bette Midler in Hawaii,[20] and Al Pacino in Me, Natalie.[21]

Casting By places the spotlight on one of filmmaking's unsung heroes - casting director Marion Dougherty - and takes us on a journey through 50 years of Hollywood history from an entirely new perspective.
Pioneers like Marion Dougherty and Lynn Stalmaster were iconoclasts whose exquisite taste and gut instincts helped to put the final nail in the coffin of the old studio system and usher in the 'New Hollywood' with movies like Midnight Cowboy, The Graduate, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and Bonnie and Clyde. In the process they launching the careers of James Dean, Robert Duvall, Warren Beatty, Gene Hackman, Glenn Close, John Travolta, Jeff Bridges, Bette Midler and countless other iconic actors.
In this illuminating documentary, directors and actors including Al Pacino, Martin Scorsese, Clint Eastwood, Robert De Niro, Diane Lane, Jon Voight, Bette Midler and John Travolta share stories and memories from their early careers, all interwoven with rarely seen clips as well as scenes from classics like The Sting, Goodfellas, Annie Hall, The Great Escape and West Side Story.
"CRITIC'S PICK! In this delightful documentary, Marion Dougherty insists that finding the right actor for television or the movies simply requires gut instinct. But, while Dougherty clearly had an almost eerie sense of how a particular actor might inhabit a part, this film also shows that she may have single-handedly created a filmmaking craft and then made it indispensable. Beginning in 1947, she mined the New York stage for television shows. Later, with Lynn Stalmaster, Dougherty brought this casting approach to meet the fresh needs of a film industry emerging from the collapse of the old studio system. It's amazing how many actors of the 'American New Wave' got their start thanks to those two, and we get to see these performers, then and now." --Daphne Howland, The Village Voice
"Jam-packed with evocative film clips, archival footage and interviews with a who's who of actors and filmmakers, Casting By makes a compelling case for a Hollywood-gone-by when gut instincts, risk-taking and a dark-horse mentality could trump corporate meddling and box office slavishness. Hearing how bold, creative casting choices propelled the success of such landmark pictures as 'The Graduate,' 'Midnight Cowboy' and 'Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid' proves a vivid reminder of the hand-in-glove importance of right actor/right role - and the indispensability of those casting mavens who helped make movie history. Good stuff!" --Gary Goldstein, Los Angeles Times
"Highly entertaining! An illuminating close-up on a vital cog in the moviemaking machine and a fresh perspective on key episodes in the birth of the New Hollywood. It's thrilling to gain insight into how these iconic movies came together." --David Rooney, The Hollywood Reporter

This is one of the best docs I have seen about the movies and best docs period (don't be fooled by the weird cover; what IS up with that?). It is very well done, good production values and the 20th century A-List actors are almost all interviewed and she had a hand in all of their careers. Al Pacino, Robert DeNiro, Robert Redford, Glenn Close, Dustin Hoffman, Jon Voight, Bette Midler, John Travolta, Jeff Bridges, Martin Scorsese, and many other actors, directors and studio executives.
The 60s and 70s were my generation's golden age and quirky actors like Dustin Hoffman and DeNiro would never have been given a chance if not pushed by Marion. They would never get cast today. There is no room for films like those as studios take the money shortcut and make mindless action superhero movies or Star Wars XVIIII and terrible Star Trek reboots. Even the "good" movies are not so much now. Oscar winners are rarely the quality of that time (and other 20th century films). Kind of joke now. One year of movies in the 60s or 70s had more great, classic, iconic movies than all of the 21st century, and it's late 2019. And we have Marion, and the other casting directors influenced by her incredible innovations, to thank. If Marion had been a director or DP or screenwriter, and probably male, she'd have had a shelf full of Oscars and be referred to in hushed tones as "one of the greats".
I have news for director Taylor Hackford. Who does he think PICKS the people for him to decide upon? He doesn't sit around on the phone, pouring through photos and resumes and giving casting his whole creative attention! He's not one of the greats, so kind of who cares; the REAL greats gave their thanks and support. What a mean spirited man or he sure came off that way. It's that kind of thinking that shut down accolades for casting directors and that kind of thinking that is ruining Hollywood and lowering the quality of movies that are made. I mostly watch docs now as feature films are usually junk.

This is not the greatest documentary you may ever watch, but it is one of the loveliest valentines ever committed to celluloid. It's dedicated to a genuine pioneer in motion pictures who should be better known: Marion Dougherty (1923–2011), casting director extraordinaire.
From roughly 1960 to 2000—the demise of Hollywood's old studio system to today's conglomerates (except for the money, why did Coca-Cola ever buy Columbia Pictures?)—producers and directors had final say on which actors were cast for their films, but casting directors like Marion Dougherty knew the entire range of possibilities and brought to the decision-makers perfect fits for the parts. You'll see many of them in "Casting By," and the sheer range of talent will blow you away: Al Pacino, Clint Eastwood, Glenn Close, Robert De Niro, Danny Glover, Jean Stapleton, Carroll O'Connor, Robert Redford, Gene Hackman, Diane Ladd, John Lithgow, Ed Asner, Jon Voigt, and many more. Ms. Dougherty saw in most of these talent that they often had not yet recognized in themselves. On the West Coast her counterpart was Lynn Stalmaster (1928–2021), who did the same for such actors as Dustin Hoffman, John Travolta, Jeff Bridges, and Christopher Reeve. This movie takes you behind the scenes of the painful process by which actors win and lose parts, how executives like Dougherty and Stalmaster nurture not only actors but other casting directors, and how shabbily the professionals in casting have been treated by the Motion Picture Academy. Before her death Hollywood's leading stars pushed for Ms. Dougherty to receive a special Academy Award for her lifetime's achievement. It had to be a special award, because no Oscar is ever bestowed on those in the field of casting. Scripts, cinematography, art direction, wardrobe, editing, special effects, you name it—but not casting. In 2016 Mr. Stalmaster received the first Oscar ever bestowed on a casting director. He deserved it—but so did Ms. Dougherty, who had died five years previously.
To appreciate Marion Dougherty's contribution, take only one of the many movies on which she worked. "The Sting" (1973) was nominated for ten Academy Awards, won seven, including best picture, best script (David S. Ward) and best director (George Roy Hill). The movie had thirty-one actors. Every one of them, from stars to one-liners, were perfectly cast. Hill admitted as much when he received his Oscar, and thanked Dougherty at the podium.
Now, because of "By Casting," we know enough to thank her, too.

Very well-considered and comprehensive look at a very important person who was not appreciated by the powers in Hollywood except for DeNiro, Hoffman, Eastwood, Pacino, Voight, Close, Duvall and many others, all of whom owe their careers in part to Marion Dougherty.

I have seen this documentary countless times and fall in love with Marion Dougherty each time. It's one of the best behind-the-scenes look at how Marion and other casting directors use their keen eye to bring your beloved classics to life. It is also infuriating how gatekeepers in Hollywood view this under-appreciated role. If you want to know how your favs got their big break, this is the DVD for you.

This documentary film opened up the world of casting for me, an area I knew nothing about. It is not just an entertaining and fascinating film, it is uplifting. I've watched it several times and given it to friends. A real find.

An extremely well-researched and presented view of the history of casting, with an amazing, but not surprising, array of tributes to Marion Dougherty. In the interest of full disclosure, Marion was my wife's aunt, and we cherish Marion and her memory. Personal thanks (again) to Tom Donahue, Kate Lacey, and everyone else who played any role in bringing "Casting By" to life. Marion would have said, albeit in more salty language, "What's the big deal?" Anyone who knew and loved her knows the answer. Now many more people will know it as well.
