Lovely and charming brunette actress Nadine Van der Velde was born on
May 14, 1962 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. She made her film debut in a
small role in the raunchy teen sex comedy
Le collège s'envoie en l'air (1983). Nadine gave
a lively and engaging performance as the spunky "April Brown" in the
delightful Critters (1986). She was
likewise appealing as "Cindy" in
Munchies (1987) and once again solid as
the perky "Joan" in the "The Old Dark House" segment of the immensely
enjoyable horror anthology
Après minuit (1989). Van der
Velde was excellent in a rare substantial leading part as troubled
aspiring dancer "Jessica Lilliane" in
Shadow Dancing (1988). Nadine made
guest appearances on the TV shows
Otherworld (1985),
CBS Schoolbreak Special (1984),
Le magicien (1986),
Alfred Hitchcock présente (1985),
Un privé sous les tropiques (1991),
Kung fu, la légende continue (1993)
and JAG (1995). Van der Velde's last role
to date was as aspiring singer "Reggie Tweed" in
East of A (2000); she also co-wrote the
script for this film. Nadine has since gone on to a successful career
as a writer for children's pictures and television programs: she's
penned several episodes of the show
Miss Spider (2004)
and the screenplays for two "Rolie Polie Olie" movies. Moreover, she
won two daytime Emmy Awards for her work on the
Rolie Polie Olie (1998)
animated TV series.
