About Danielle Fishel
Actress Danielle Fishel grew up in Yorba Linda, CA, as the daughter of a medical equipment salesman, and entered the limelight at age ten with an appearance in a doll commercial. Continued involvement in show business beckoned, and under the aegis of her mother's management, she landed a string of guest spots on network sitcoms during the very early '90s, then signed on as one of the regular cast members on the situation comedy Boy Meets World (1993-2000). On that program, Fishel played Topanga Lawrence, teenage girlfriend and then wife of the lead character (Ben Savage). She remained with the series for all of its seven seasons, and netted viewer loyalty for helping to evolve the character from a head-in-the-clouds preteen hippie to a thoughtful and mature young woman.rrFishel took her feature bow as a cheerleader in the 2000 crime picture Longshot (aka Jack of All Trades), then joined the casts of such outings as National Lampoon Presents: Dorm Daze (2003), Gamebox 1.0 (2004), and National Lampoon's Dorm Daze 2 (2006). ~ Nathan Southern, All Movie Guide
