American actor Rebecca McFarland is a native of New Orleans, Louisiana. She began acting in middle school, playing the Ice Queen in a school production, and has been a performer ever since. She attended the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts, an arts training center for children of secondary school age, and went on to Tulane University where she obtained her BA in Theater.Relocating to Los Angeles, she was soon cast in guest starring roles on television, including in the famous Seinfeld (1989) episode, Seinfeld: The Little Kicks (1996), in which she plays Anna, a love interest of George's who is attracted to rough men, causing George to feign a dangerous side, with predictable results. Recurring roles followed, such as in the Fred Savage series, Working (1997), and as the bartender Leanne in the hit series, Two and a Half Men (2003). McFarland's film roles have included Scream 2 (1997).New Orleans famously boasts bigger-than-life personalities and McFarland, a daughter of that city, is no exception, being capable of portraying a gamut of roles from tough professional to comical ditz. She is an accomplished self-taught painter and is active on social media. McFarland has been linked romantically to director Jason Ensler.
