Paget Brewster (born March 10, 1969 in Concord, Massachusetts) is an actress who appeared in the short-lived comedy series Andy Richter Controls The Universe and as Beth Huffstodt in the Showtime original series Huff, which aired from 2004-2006. She also played Amy Pierson, a calculus teacher afraid of the water in the independent film "The Big Bad Swim" that premiered at the 2006 Tribeca Film Festival. She has now joined the cast of the CBS crime drama Criminal Minds.
Brewster first came to prominent attention in her recurring role as Kathy, Chandler's girlfriend in the fourth season of Friends.
She has a reputation as a "show killer" because many shows on which she has been a regular cast member have been cancelled early in their run.[1]
Brewster had a short-lived Bay Area talk show and was a bartender at the late Andy Boy's Drunk Tank in San Francisco.
In film, Brewster's most notable role[citation needed] is Ms. Indestructible, the female lead in James Gunn's low-budget superhero comedy The Specials (2000), opposite Thomas Haden Church and Rob Lowe.
In 2005, Brewster began voice work as a recurring character on the animated series Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law as Judy Sebben/Birdgirl.
On the March 30, 2006 episode of Late Night with Conan O'Brien, Brewster revealed that she had recently received a handwritten note indicating Hugh Hefner would like her to pose for Playboy. She seriously considered the offer but eventually turned it down for career reasons, even though her parents gave her their blessing and she said that she admired Playboy more than magazines such as Maxim and FHM. [1]. She has, however, photographed spreads of other models for the website Suicide Girls.
Brewster has volunteered as an actress with the Young Storytellers Program.
She currently has a regular role in the CBS crime series about the Behavioral Analysis Unit of the FBI, "Criminal Minds", as profiler Emily Prentiss.
