Melissa Bardin Galsky, born in Harrison, New York, began her career in animation as an associate producer and talent coordinator for Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist. She rose to prominence voicing Melissa Robbins in Home Movies (1999-2004), a cult classic animated sitcom created by Brendon Small and Loren Bouchard. Her work on the show extended to writing, producing, and serving as a creative consultant. Galsky's distinctive voice brought characters to life in several animated series, including Hey Monie! (2003) as Robin and O'Grady (2004-2006) as Abby Wilde. She also voiced the titular character in Lucy, the Daughter of the Devil (2005-2007) on Adult Swim. After a brief hiatus from voice acting in 2007, she returned in 2011 to voice multiple characters in Bob's Burgers, including Nora Samuels, Ms. Jacobson, and others. Beyond acting, Galsky has made significant contributions behind the scenes. She currently serves as the East Coast talent coordinator for Bob's Burgers, showcasing her multifaceted role in the animation industry. Galsky's work, particularly with Soup2Nuts and Loren Bouchard's projects, has left a lasting impact on animated sitcoms, blending humor and heart in her performances and production efforts.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
