My Take
Wendie Malick turned her own past as a fashion model into comic gold, and that act of self-aware reinvention is what wins my respect. As Nina Van Horn on Just Shoot Me! she skewered the vanity of the modeling world from the inside, earning Emmy nominations for the privilege. Few performers can be glamorous and ridiculous in the same breath; Malick does it effortlessly, and has for decades across sitcoms and voice work. Born in Buffalo and still working past seventy, she represents a career model I genuinely admire: never the loudest name on the poster, always the sharpest timing in the room.
