Natasha Melnick

Although fans of quirky television comedies may not readily recognize the name Natasha Melnick, they will likely be familiar with her most renowned role as Cindy Sanders, the dream girl of John Francis Daley's young lead character on the beloved teen series "Freaks and Geeks." The show was Melnick's first significant part, and she followed it up with various TV guest appearances, including a two-episode stint on "Undeclared," Judd Apatow's first major venture after "Freaks and Geeks." Melnick later became a regular on the lauded, but quickly cancelled, comedy series "Do Over" and had a recurring role on the scholastic drama "Boston Public," before switching her focus to indie films.
