Amanda Jeannette Detmer (born September
27, 1971 in Chico, California) is an American actress
who has appeared in various films and television shows.
She attended California State University, Chico for her
undergraduate education; deciding to complete her Master
of Fine Arts from NYU's Tisch School of the Arts before
seriously embarking on a career in show business.
She made her onscreen debut in 1995 with the television
movie Stolen Innocence, and her big screen debut playing
Miss Minneapolis in the beauty pageant-set comedy Drop
Dead Gorgeous. She has also made notable film
appearances in Final Destination, Saving Silverman, The
Majestic and Big Fat Liar. In television, she also
appears in the ABC drama What About Brian
A petite blonde actress with pretty, pixiesh features
and a high energy presence, California native Amanda
Detmer made her debut in the TV-movie "Stolen
Innocence" (CBS) in 1995. A local girl (the project
was lensed in her native Chico), Detmer impressed with a
featured role in the telepic, but resumed her education,
earning her BA and later her MFA in theater.
In 1998 she spent a summer on stage in
Minneapolis and that same year lensed a starring role in
the mystical independent drama "Last Seen".
Although she had by now completed her graduate degree at
New York University and was in her late twenties, Detmer
easily adapted to teen roles, possessing youthful looks
and bubbly charm.
1999 saw the actress make her big screen
debut playing Miss Minneapolis in the Minnesota beauty
pageant-set comedy "Drop Dead Gorgeous".
Television work in the NBC miniseries "To Serve and
Protect" (NBC) and the very short-lived series
"Ryan Caulfield: Year One" (Fox) put her among
fictional police that same year.
Detmer made greater strides in 2000, with a featured
role in the ensemble of the teen thriller "Final
Destination". Playing Terry, the agreeable
girlfriend of thickheaded jock Carter (Kerr Smith)
offered her increased visibility and the chance to
suffer what may be the most genuinely startling demise
in the contemporary spate of teen scream films.
While her character would no doubt stay
down, Detmer saw her profile continue to rise that year,
starring as an understanding and upbeat teacher with a
regular role on Don Roos' edgy comedy
"M.Y.O.B." (NBC) and taking on a co-starring
role alongside hot tickets Claire Forlani, Freddie
Prinze Jr. and Jason Biggs in Robert Iscove's
college-set romantic comedy "Boys and Girls".
In 2001, she reteamed with Biggs, playing his love
interest (and a would-be nun) in the daffy comedy
"Saving Silverman".
