Mindy Lee Sterling (born July 11, 1953) is an American actress. She portrayed Frau Farbissina in the Austin Powers film series (1997–2002), and starred in the web series Con Man (2015–2017), the latter of which earned her a Primetime Emmy Award nomination. She also provided the voices of Ms. Endive in the Cartoon Network series Chowder (2007–10), and the voice of Lin Beifong in the Nickelodeon series The Legend of Korra (2012–2014), and had recurring roles as Miss Francine Briggs on the Nickelodeon series iCarly (2007–12), Principal Susan Skidmore on the Disney Channel series A.N.T. Farm (2011–13) and Linda Schwartz on the ABC series The Goldbergs (2017-present).
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.
