Judy Landers, a former Juilliard music student, has established herself as a beloved character actress through her captivating on-screen presence and versatility in a wide range of roles.

With a background in music, Landers' initial training at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts set the stage for her future success in both action-packed series and light-hearted situation comedies during the 1980s.

Her ability to convincingly portray naive, innocent, or even slightly dim-witted characters has led to her excelling in comedies, with notable appearances in popular series such as Night Court and The Love Boat, as well as memorable performances in films like Stewardess School and Dr. Alien.

In her personal life, Landers is married to former baseball player Tom Niedenfuer, with whom she shares two daughters, Lindsey and Kristy.
