Also, how come that page doesn’t have a comments section? Is the site going to phase out the comment section?
Correction.
Stefanie’s birth name was Stefania Zofia Federkiewicz.
It’s been claimed by many websites that she’s Jewish. The only hint of any connection to Judaism I can find, is that she’s a supporter/performer of/for the organization Jewish Family Service of the Desert.
Stefanie was born Stefanie Zofya Paul.

While her mother was of Polish Catholic descent, her father, Morrison Bloomfield Paul, was indeed Jewish. So good call on this one.
Stefanie seems to have been estranged from her father, which led to some confusion over her parentage.

But there seems to be no doubt now.
what about adding Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Rick Gomez?
Darn imdb, they gave me her birth name, someone needs the notify them about that mistake.
