Judith Scott

Judith Scott is an American actress known for her roles in L.A. Doctors, Jake 2.0, and Dexter, and for her years with the Second City theatre troupe, both in Chicago and Toronto.

Early life and career Born Judith Spears on Dec 22, 1965, in Fort Bragg, North Carolina, Scott is the eldest of three children born to Henrietta Eleanor (née Evans) and Julian Herbert Spears, then an officer in the United States Army Special Forces. Reflecting her father's respective reassignments, the family's address shifted frequently during Scott's pre-school years, encompassing North Carolina, Georgia, Kentucky, and even Germany. Six years in Tennessee were followed by moves to Delaware, and, finally, to Illinois, where, following her brief attendance at Webster College and an unfulfilling one-year expedition to Paris, Scott finally found what she had been searching for in the form of Chicago's Second City (stumbled upon after exiting a nearby restroom). I heard people laughing and decided to poke my head in. I said to myself, 'How do I get a piece of this? I want in on this party.' [...] The theater, particularly Second City, was grad school for me. I learned a lot of life lessons out of that place. She has also appeared in feature films such as the 1994 The Santa Clause movie starring Tim Allen, Guess Who, Fracture, and Flightplan. She played Claudia in FX's Snowfall. Her upcoming projects include Geechee.
