With a genuine gift for comedy and an engaging on-screen presence, Judy Greer, who portrays Drew's sister Heather Baylor, has quickly become one of Hollywood's most captivating young talents.

This fall, Judy will reprise her hilarious guest-starring role as Kitty Sanchez on Fox's critically acclaimed hit show, “Arrested Development.”

She will then star in CBS' and Sony Pictures Television's new show “Love Monkey,” opposite Tom Cavanaugh. Greer plays Bran, a stylish, sweet, smart woman who is a producer for a nighttime news magazine show. Bran is best friends with Tom, a laid-back guy with a keen love of rock and roll and an even keener eye for the ladies. Tom hits a low point when he loses his record company job and girlfriend in the same day. Underneath Bran and Tom's platonic friendship, there is a definite sexual chemistry between the two and Bran thinks she might be the woman Tom needs in order to settle down.

Greer has also recently signed on to star opposite Sigourney Weaver and David Duchovny in the indie satire “The TV Set,” which follows the making of a television pilot. This comes after just finishing production on Paul Weitz's new film “American Dreamz,” opposite Hugh Grant and Mandy Moore. Greer recently wrapped production on Danny Leiner's “The Great New Wonderful” opposite Thomas McCarthy. She will also be seen in the independent film “The Moguls” opposite Jeff Bridges and Jeanne Tripplehorn, slated for release next spring.

Greer starred in writer/director M. Night Shyamalan's “The Village” opposite Joaquin Phoenix, Adrien Brody, Sigourney Weaver and William Hurt, which Disney released in the summer of 2004. She also starred opposite Jennifer Garner in Revolution Studios' romantic comedy, “13 Going On 30.” The film was directed by Gary Winick and released by Columbia Pictures.

Other credits include writer/director Adam Goldberg's psychological drama “I Love Your Work” (debuted at the 2003 Toronto Film Festival), “The Hebrew Hammer” (debuted at the 2003 Sundance Film Festival), Charlie Kaufman's critically-acclaimed “Adaptation,” “The Wedding Planner,” “What Women Want,” “What Planet Are You From?,” “Three Kings,” “Jawbreaker,” “The Specials,” and “Kissing a Fool,” among others.

Greer was born and raised outside of Detroit. She trained for nearly ten years in classical Russian ballet and then shifted her interest to acting and was accepted into Chicago's prestigious Theatre School at DePaul University.
