Catalogue information
Francine Joy (Fran) Drescher (Flushing, Queens (New York City), September 30, 1957) is a Jewish American actress and comedian. She played a small role in the 1977 film Saturday Night Fever, a slightly larger role in 1984's This is Spinal Tap, but is best known as Fran Fine from the comedy television series The Nanny (1993-1999), a series she herself invented and produced. Her voice has a strong New York accent. While many people think her nasal voice is acting, it is her own voice. She put a lot of effort into reducing her nasality, but The Nanny eventually made it her calling card. She has written a book about her experiences with cancer, Cancer Schmancer, and from 2005 to 2006 she was on television again in the United States, this time with the sitcom Living with Fran.
