So, you think your favorite cartoon character sounds familiar? Well, you're certainly not alone. That's because the voice you're hearing is very likely that of LARA JILL MILLER, one of the industry's premier voice talents.

You'll probably recognize her face as well. That's because she spent six seasons in your living room on the hit NBC sit-com GIMME A BREAK with Nell Carter. Although she's been a stage veteran since the age of eight (she appeared on Broadway alongside the legendary Dick Van Dyke in THE MUSIC MAN), it was the role of precocious tomboy "SAMANTHA" that etched her face (and that voice!) into the hearts and minds of TV viewers everywhere.

Determined to finish her education after the series ended, Lara graduated from NYU (Phi Beta Kappa & Magna Cum Laude), and continued on to obtain her JURIS DOCTOR from FORDHAM UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF LAW – passing the Bar Exam in three states.

After a brief stint practicing law in NYC, Lara returned to television with a recurring role on NICKELODEON's THE AMANDA SHOW. She also made appearances on the NICK hits ALL THAT and iCARLY, as well as daytime's GENERAL HOSPITAL and CHICKEN SOUP FOR THE SOUL – all while starring as "KARI" for 3 seasons on the hit animated series DIGIMON, along with its accompanying feature film.

Currently, Lara can be heard as the problem solving "WIDGET" on the NICKELODEON hit WOW WOW WUBBZY!, the plucky "ALLIE" on PBS' popular CURIOUS GEORGE, and the celebrated red canine puppy in the PBS series CLIFFORD'S PUPPY DAYS (with Henry Winkler as his friend Norville). Listen for her as she flies high in NICK's new series WINX CLUB, as the mischievous boy "IGGY" on GOODNITES' BEDTIME THEATER web series, and as the maniacal "COMRADE BLACK" in the popular game, DE BLOB.

Some of her other notable credits include three seasons as the title role in THE LIFE AND TIMES OF JUNIPER LEE for CARTOON NETWORK, singing as "DOROTHY" on NPR's THE WIZARD OF OZ (alongside Annette Bening and John Goodman), opposite Jim Gaffigan in MY MOM MARRIED A YETI, as "OLIVIA" (Tommy Pickles' first kiss!) in The Rugrats' ALL GROWN UP, recurring in HIGGLYTOWN HEROES, as the evil "JULIE" in HI HI PUFYY AMIYUMI, as well as countless other toys and games. So go ahead and press that button on the doggie bench at OLD NAVY – you may just recognize the voice!

*In the News! Lara is excited to be part of the new DISNEY JUNIOR lineup in 2012, where she will play the cuddly and lovable "LAMBIE" in the new show DOC McSTUFFINS. In addition, she is proud to announce that SCIGIRLS, the live-action educational series on PBS, just won an Emmy Award! Listen for her starring as the animated "IZZIE."
