Actress

The Resume

    (July 20, 1953- )
    Born in Teaneck, New Jersey
    Birth name is Ann Leslie Garlington
    Played Claire the Waitress in the pilot to Seinfeld ('The Seinfeld Chronicles,' 1989)
    Acted in 'Cobra (1986),' 'Field of Dreams (1989),' 'Sneakers (1992),' 'My Life (1993)' 'The Sum of All Fears (2002),' 'Johnson Family Vacation (2004),' and 'The Angriest Man in Brooklyn (2014)'

Why she might be annoying:

    She acted in not one, but two, Psycho sequels (as 'Myrna the Mean Waitress').
    She played Robert Costanzo's mistress in an episode of Friends and played his wife in an episode of Will & Grace ten years later.
    She was meant to be the token female on Seinfeld, but when the pilot was picked up she was replaced by Julia Louis-Dreyfus.
    She was the second actress to play Rose's daughter Kirsten on the penultimate episode of The Golden Girls despite looking nothing like the original actress.

Why she might not be annoying:

    She appeared in over 25 plays in Los Angeles and winning numerous Dramalogue Awards.
    She received an Emmy Award nomination for her role as Darlene in 'Broken.'
    She is considered director Phil Alden Robinson's 'good luck charm' and has worked with him on five movies.
    She has guested on nearly every major show of the 1990s/early-2000s.
    She said of Seinfeld's subsequent success without her: 'It didn't bother me the first five years. But the second five years drove me nuts. I don't know why. I still see Jason regularly ... I've never talked about it with him, but I'm sure for him he's like, Oh, poor Lee! Poor Lee! Oh, it's funny.'
