Public image and legacy

Daly has been identified as a feminist icon in the media, particularly based on her television role in Cagney and Lacey.<ref name=TG>Template:Cite webTemplate:Cbignore</ref> Her role as Lacey showed a woman detective at a time when the idea was still novel; the show was also novel in presenting Lacey primarily in a work environment, rather than always showing the character at home.<ref name=museum/> She has also been outspoken about maintaining a natural appearance as she ages, and for the run of Judging Amy, Daly's hair was in its naturally gray state and not dyed.<ref>Profile Template:Dead link, Westsidetoday.com, April 29, 2005.</ref>

Personal life

Daly was married to Georg Stanford Brown from 1966 to 1990.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> They have three daughters.<ref name=film>Template:Cite web</ref><ref name="Tyne Daly Interview">Template:Cite news</ref>
