Cindy Morgan

Cynthia Ann Cichorski (September 29, 1954 – c. December 30, 2023), known professionally as Cindy Morgan, was an American actress best known for playing Lora/Yori in Tron and Lacey Underall in Caddyshack.

Cynthia Ann Cichorski was born in Chicago, Illinois, on September 29, 1954.

She was of Polish and German descent.

Morgan attended 12 years of Catholic school, then studied communications at Northern Illinois University, where she was a DJ on the campus radio station.

A commercial station in town invited her to report the news for them and she adopted the last name Morgan, from a story she had read about Morgan Le Fay when she was 12 years old.

After graduation, Morgan worked at a television station in Rockford, Illinois, where she forecast the weather.

She kept her hand in radio by working the graveyard shift at a local rock station.

She returned to Chicago and deejayed on WSDM, until quitting on air during a labor dispute at the station.

Morgan then worked for Fiat Automobiles.

She moved to Los Angeles in 1978, and became the Irish Spring girl in advertisements, while attending acting schools and workshops.

Morgan landed her first screen role in the 1980 comedy Caddyshack, playing the role of sexy bombshell Lacey Underall.

Morgan appeared in the 1982 hit Tron, the first computer-generated film.

She played two characters: Lora, a computer programmer in the "real" world, and Yori, her alter-ego in the film's computer-generated flights of imagination.

Morgan has multiple television and film credits, including portraying two roles on the primetime soap opera Falcon Crest, Lori Chapman in season one and Gabrielle Short in seasons six and seven.

Morgan also played two characters, in two episodes, on the television series Matlock.

Her other credits include guest and minor appearances on The Larry Sanders Show, Amazing Stories, CHiPs, and a co-starring role on Bring 'Em Back Alive.

Morgan was an associate producer on five films produced by Larry Estes.

According to the documentary Caddyshack: The Inside Story,, Morgan was a resident of Florida and working on a book about her experiences during the making of Caddyshack, to be called From Catholic School to Caddyshack.

Morgan voiced Ma3a in Buena Vista Interactive's PC game Tron 2.0 in 2003.

Morgan was found dead of natural causes at her home in Lake Worth Beach, Florida, on December 30, 2023, at the age of 69.

She had last been seen alive on December 19, and had made a final social media post on her personal Facebook page on December 25, 2023.

She was director of the Caddyshack Reunion Golf Tournament in 2006, which reunited some of the cast of Caddyshack (Morgan included), along with other celebrities.

Subtitled "Playing for the Home Team" and hosted at Willow Crest Golf Club in Oak Brook, Illinois, the tournament raised funds (and awareness) to benefit the Illinois Military Family Relief Fund, an organization that helps the families of National Guard members and reservists on active duty.

Morgan did not participate in the making of Tron: Legacy, the 2010 sequel to the 1982 film, nor does she appear in any of the retrospective materials produced in conjunction with the sequel for use in a DVD/Blu-ray reissue of the film in 2011.

She did reunite with her costar Bruce Boxleitner in character as Lora, in a mock news conference on April 2, 2010, promoting the release of Tron: Legacy.

Morgan, whose father fought in World War II, was passionate about supporting the United States military and helping to alleviate the financial hardship felt by those who have been called to serve in the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.

In a 2012 interview, Morgan said of the role: "Caddyshack was my first film and I'll say that the end product was so completely different, it was originally about the caddies.
