Jami Gertz (born October 28, 1965 in Chicago, Illinois) is an American actress. From 2002 until 2006, she starred in the CBS sitcom Still Standing.
She is also best known for her early roles in the

1980s TV series
Square Pegs with
Sarah Jessica Parker. Gertz also had supporting roles in the
1996 blockbuster Twister, the
1984 teen film
Sixteen Candles, the
1986 film
Crossroads and a 1994 episode of

Elaine's toilet-paper-hogging nemesis).
Gertz made her film debut (along with Tom Cruise) in the 1981 romance film Endless Love. In 2002, Gertz played the late comedic legend Gilda Radner in the television movie Gilda Radner: It's Always Something.

Jami Gertz's character's name, "Judy Miller," was also the name of the little girl character created by Gilda Radner on "Saturday Night Live" (1975). This tie may be a tribute to Radner, since Gertz played her in the TV movie "Gilda Radner: It's Always Something." [1]

Jewish and
Italian extraction, now lives in Los Angeles with her husband Antony Ressler (6/16/89) and their three sons: Oliver, Nicholas, and Theo.
