Most people know her best for playing sports journalist P.J. Franklin on the popular TBS sitcom My Boys—a role that really put her on the map. But beyond that, she’s also earned recognition for her performance as Brandi Thorson in the USA Network series The Huntress, which added depth to her growing reputation. On the big screen, she made memorable appearances in comedy films like The Goods: Live Hard, Sell Hard, where she played Ivy Selleck, and Must Love Dogs, starring as Sherry. These roles helped solidify her presence in Hollywood.
Before all the fame, though, she dedicated herself to mastering her craft. She trained at prestigious institutions—first at New York’s Circle in the Square Theatre School, then later at London’s Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts. After honing her skills, she went on to join Columbia University’s Master of Fine Arts program in film, showing her commitment not just to acting but to storytelling as a whole.
Growing up in Manhattan, New York, she was raised in a Jewish household alongside her four siblings, forming the foundation of a close-knit family life. Today, she continues building her personal story with her husband, Matthew Spitzer, with whom she shares a child. Through each chapter, she’s remained grounded, balancing her professional achievements with a meaningful private life.
She appeared in recurring roles across several popular TV series, showcasing her range and talent. On The Good Wife, she portrayed Detective Jenna Villette with a compelling presence that stood out over multiple episodes. Later, she took on the role of Dr. Grace Devlin in The Mob Doctor, bringing depth and authenticity to the character. Not long after, she joined the cast of Harry’s Law as Rachael Miller, further solidifying her reputation as a versatile and reliable performer. She really made each of these roles her own, leaving a lasting impression on viewers and critics alike. Her ability to step into complex characters and make them feel real is one of the reasons she continues to be a sought-after name in television.
