Brooke Adams (Shalhoub)

Not the WWE Diva, this Brooke began as a child actor on tv and rapidly moved into feature films.
While she's done big-budget dramas like Days of Heaven, most of her work has been in genre, particuarly in horror.

Trivia: Brooke turned down a role as one of the original Charlie's Angels!
She's married to Monk's Tony Shalhoub, and made several appearances on Monk as different characters!
Brooke is one of the few performers to appear in multiple Stephen King adapatations (in different roles).
