Jane Leeves is a actress best known for her work as Daphne
Moon on Frasier.
Jane Leeves grew up in East Grinstead, Leeves trained as a ballet dancer & worked as a model, until she made her first film appearance as an angel in Monty Python's The Meaning of Life. She was a regular on The Benny Hill Show & appeared in a David Lee Roth music video for the song "California Girls", but struggled for several years to establish herself. She became somewhat visible as the flighty record company employee on the syndicated sitcom Throb!.
She had a recurring role in the television series Murphy Brown which provided her first period of success, playing "Audrey", the loud & awkward girlfriend of producer, Miles Silverberg (played by Grant Shaud). Leeves also appeared as the troublesome Marla, "the virgin," in three risqué episodes of Seinfeld: "The Virgin", "The Contest" & "The Finale - Part 2". Moreover during this period Leeves was cast as Holly for the U.S. version of the science-fiction comedy Red Dwarf.
In 1993, she joined the cast of the television series Frasier. Leeves played the beautiful, eccentric, new age & forthright Daphne Moon, & she became a popular actress in this role. By the start of 2001-2002 season, Leeves was pregnant at the time & the writers struggled to incorporate her pregnancy as weight gain due to her character's stress from her relationship with Niles. By the conclusion of Frasier, Leeves had received an Emmy Award nomination for her role, & had become the highest paid British actress in Hollywood.
Appearing less frequently in cinema, Leeves lent her voice to the animated film James & the Giant Peach (1996) & acted in the film Music of the Heart (1999).
In 2004 she hosted an episode of Have I Got News for You. When news was revealed that the BBC had flown 188 journalists over to cover the presidential election in the USA, she quipped, "I can't believe the BBC would spend money flying people over the Atlantic for one programme."
Besides her major work in television, Leeves is also remembered for her role in the 1985 movie To Live & Die in L.A., in which she portrayed a scorned bisexual involved in a steamy menage à trois who eventually runs off with the woman.
Her newest show, The WB's sitcom Misconceptions, went unaired.
She has been married to Marshall Coben, a CBS Paramount Television executive, since December 21, 1996, & they have two children, Isabella, age six, & Finn, age three. Her sister, Katie, is also settled in Southern California with two children.
She is best friends with former "Frasier" co-star,
Peri Gilpin, with whom she had hoped to produce an American version of the popular
BBC comedy, "The Vicar of Dibley".
