Diminutive Mindy Sterling stands at only 5’2”, but she’s a giant when it comes to stealing the scene. Known worldwide for her role as Frau Farbissina in the Austin Powers movie trio, International Man of Mystery (1997), The Spy Who Shagged Me (1999) and Goldmember (2002), the brunette star also has a slew of other recognizable credits on her acting resume. Often playing the mean person, a villain, or the foil to star, she’s kept audiences amused with her roles in on TV as Fifi in On The Spot in 2003; Arlene Scott in My Own Worst Enemy in 2008; Mitzi Kinsky in Desperate Housewives from 2010-2011; Mrs. Briggs in iCarly from 2007-2012; Susan Skidmore on A.N.T. Farm from 2011-2013; Janice Nugent on Legit in 2013-2014, where we get to see the saucy star in a couch tumble with a co-star; Bobbie in Con Man from 2015-2017, where Mindy’s must-sees are seen pumped up to maximum exposure in a corset and a lace bra; Edna in Hotel Du Loone in 2018, and as Linda Schwartz in The Goldbergs from 2017-2021. The New Jersey native has also splashed across the big screen in movies other than those starring Mike Myers, such as Drop Dead Gorgeous (1999), Spring Breakdown (2009), Transformers: Dark of the Moon (2011), and Casual Encounters (2016). Mindy is also a huge voice actor, and she can be heard in tons of animated movies like The Brave Little Toaster (1987), Monsters University (2013), Batman and Harley Quinn (2017), and Despicable Me 3 (2017), as well as a few Scooby-Doo movies; and on TV shows like Robot Chicken from 2006-2008, Kick Buttowski: Suburban Daredevil from 2010-2012, The Legend of Korra from 2012-2014, Voltron: Legendary Defender in 2017-2018, and The Epic Tales of Captain Underpants in 2018-2019. Not to mention three Spider-Man (2004, 2005), one EverQuest II (2004) and one Superman Returns (2006) video games. That’s a lot packed into those 62 inches.
