Mallory was cast for Days of Our Lives in the year 1966 and since then had played the role of Dr. Bill Horton until 1980, when he left the show and the role to Chris Stone who replaced him.

He also appeared on the film The Birdman of Alcatraz, however, his appearance was never credited.
Being an actor had also exposed him to the concepts of directing, and through the years he became an accomplished television director, directing some episodes of Days of Our Lives, and other popular daytime soaps All My Children, The Young and the Restless and General Hospital. He also wrote, directed, and produced documentaries for The History Channel and A&E.
Mallory, who was born in Cumberland, Maryland, was a member of Frostburg State University’s Artists in Residence and was featured in the university’s magazine in 2002. He expressed his great interest in Shakespeare and his transition to working in the television and film industries. He also said that “when luck strikes, you have to be ready to grab the opportunity.”
He unfortunately passed away in Salisbury, Pennsylvania two months before his birthday on June 14, when he was supposed to celebrate his 77th year.
