Soleil Moon Frye (born August 6, 1976 in Glendora, California) is an American actress and director. Frye is best known for her childhood role as the title character in Punky Brewster, a television sitcom.

Frye's father is Virgil Frye, and her mother is Sondra Peluce Londy. She has two half-brothers, Sean Frye and Meeno Peluce. "Soleil" (Template:PronEng) is French for the sun.

Punky Brewster

At the age of eight, Frye starred in the title role of Punky Brewster, a television sitcom. The show aired on NBC and in syndication for several years during the mid-1980s. She also voiced the lead role in the animated series It's Punky Brewster.

Other television roles

Around the same time she was starring in Punky Brewster, Frye's voice was also heard in one episode of The Real Ghostbusters.

She co-starred alongside Sarah Chalke in I've Been Waiting For You, loosely based on the novel Gallows Hill by Lois Duncan.

She played Robin, a stuck-up girl, in a 4th season episode of Saved by the Bell. In 1990, she also played a romantic interest, Mimi Detweiler, to Fred Savage's character in an episode of The Wonder Years.

Frye appeared in Sabrina, the Teenage Witch as Roxie for the final three years of the show's run (2000 - 2003). The show starred Melissa Joan Hart, who had auditioned for the part of Punky Brewster years before. Frye once auditioned for the series Charmed, a dramedy about a trio of witch sisters, for the role of Paige Matthews, but the role was given to Rose McGowan.

She also guest-starred as Katie in the series Friends in the episode 'The One with the Girl who Hits Joey'.

In 2001, she debuted on the Disney Channel show The Proud Family as a voice talent of Zoey. She is currently voicing the character of Jade in the Bratz animated series.

Personal life

Frye married Jason Goldberg, a television producer and actor, on October 25, 1998 in Los Angeles. Their first child, daughter Poet Sienna Rose Goldberg, was born on August 24, 2005, in Los Angeles. On March 17, 2008 she gave birth to a son, Jagger Joseph Blue Goldberg. [2][3] Frye had breast reduction surgery at age 16, reducing the size of her breasts from 38DD to 36C.[4]

Her best friend is actress and former co-star/producer Melissa Joan Hart.

There are some sources that indicate she had once been a member of the Church of Scientology, but she is no longer associated with it since coverting to Judaism. [5][6]
