Name this actress

I know for sure she was in an episode of Thirtysomething as Hope’s babysitter who has sex with her boyfriend one night on the couch. She was also in a TV movie about being a teen model. She has very fair skin, red hair and full lips. She looks like the red-haired girl who works at the burger shop on Heroes with Micah’s cousin in New Orleans, and that’s how it started. I just watched that episode (finally!) on DVR and it reminded me of her. I also remember I had a big crush on her. She was obviously cute, but she played characters that were either supposed to not be cute, or “just normal”, or girls that were supposed to be super hot.

So, episode of Thirtysomething, TV movie about being a model, looks like the girl on Heroes. My imdb search skills are apparently lacking.

I’m waiting for the answer!

Cheryl Pollack? Let me see if I can dig up a picture…

That’s her!

Now, Anastasaeon, did you just know that or did you have better info than I did? Swinsuit was the TV movie I was thinking of, btw.

I was thinking of Swimsuit, but I wasn’t sure. I checked that, saw she was a babysitter on thirtysomething, and took a leap. I haven’t seen Heroes.

But damn, it’s hard to find pictures of this woman!

Is this her? (It’s from a webpage on Pump Up the Volume, which she was in.)

There’s a fairly good photo of Cheryl Pollak here. She’s shown with a young and barely recognizable Brad Pitt, in a movie called Dark Side of the Sun. Brad Pitt also played the boyfriend with whom she was canoodling on Thirtysomething.

Look for her in No Strings Attached (the 1997 movie not the 2003 one) in which she was the female lead (and did some nude scenes).

Little Nemo, such prurience is beneath me! Honestly!

And thanks! :wink:

pinkfreud, your picture hardly looks like Cheryl Pollak! All that crazy big hair stuff, bleh.

Yeah, you can definitely find her on the NSFW celebritymoviearchive dot com.
