Acting Background
Denberg began acting in community theater and school plays at the age of six. She has starred on American TV shows such as Nickelodeon's All That (from 1994 to 1998), Figure It Out as a regular panelist, with no appearances on Figure It Out: Wild Style (from 1997 to 1999), and then The WB's The Steve Harvey Show (from 1998 to 2002). On Figure It Out, Denberg had a knack for guessing the correct answer just before the contestant could win the grand prize, often even before the end of the second round.
She had a minor role in the film Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story in 2004, playing the character of Martha Johnstone. She also appeared in the movie Good Burger with fellow All That castmates Josh Server, Kenan Thompson, and Kel Mitchell.
Denberg recently reunited with her All That cast members for the 2011 Comikaze Expo. She joked at the expo that she was now "living out her old age." She recently made a brief cameo in an episode of Workaholics as herself.

Famous quotes containing the words acting and/or background:
“We don’t want bores in the theatre. We don’t want standardised acting, standard actors with standard-shaped legs. Acting needs everybody, cripples, dwarfs and people with noses so long. Give us something that is different.”
—Dame Sybil Thorndike (1882–1976)
“Silence is the universal refuge, the sequel to all dull discourses and all foolish acts, a balm to our every chagrin, as welcome after satiety as after disappointment; that background which the painter may not daub, be he master or bungler, and which, however awkward a figure we may have made in the foreground, remains ever our inviolable asylum, where no indignity can assail, no personality can disturb us.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
