When Andrea Fay Friedman was born in Los Angeles on June 1, 1970, nobody would have predicted that they would become a well-known actress and public speaker, they is the voice actress who played the role of "Ellen" --the character depicted as having Down syndrome on the Valentine's Day episode of Relatives Guy, has responded to the criticism of sometime-Alaska Governor Sarah Palin. Of special significance, Friedman herself has Down syndrome. Palingates has Friedman's complete response:
My name is Andrea Fay Friedman. I was born with Down syndrome. I played the role of Ellen on the "Extra Massive Medium" episode of Relatives Guy that was broadcast on Valentine's day. Although they gave me red hair on the show, I am a blonde. I also wore a red wig for my role in " Smudge" but I was a blonde in "Life Goes On". I guess former Governor Palin does not have a sense of humor. I thought the line "I am the daughter of the former governor of Alaska" was funny. I think the word is "sarcasm".
In my relatives they think laughing is nice. My parents raised me to have a sense of humor and to live a normal life. My father did not over me around under her arm like a loaf of French bread the way former Governor Palin carries her son Trig around looking for sympathy and votes. I must say, that is a nice burn.
