One of the original cast members on ''[[Saturday Night Live]]'' in [[The Seventies]]. She was the [[Phrase Catcher]] for the line, "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k80nW6AOhTs Jane, you ignorant slut!]"<ref>This was directed at her by [[Dan Aykroyd]] during the "Point/Counterpoint" debates on Weekend Update, as a parody of [[Ad Hominem]] attacks. Her reply was, "Dan, you pompous ass!"</ref> She later starred as Allie Lowell on ''[[Kate And Allie]]'' and Dr. Mary Albright on ''[[3rd Rock From the Sun]]''. Most of her work is in comedy and she tends to specialize in characters who are [[Comically Serious]], leading to her nickname "Queen of Deadpan".
