Grad Makes Cameo On "Ally McBeal", "Angel"
Human Rights Attorney and Fletcher Grad
Pokes Fun At Her Trade.
Medford/Somerville,
Mass. -- When she's not working as an attorney in Los Angeles,
Beth Persky plays one on TV. A 1990 graduate of Tufts' Fletcher
School of Law and Diplomacy, Persky made a cameo appearance on
Fox's Ally McBeal which aired on Monday night. Playing a member
of the "Women of Virtue Bar Chapter", Persky appeared alongside
the sitcom's star, Calista Flockhart, during a restaurant scene.
According
to the Boston Globe, the Los Angeles-based human rights
attorney also appears in an episode of the WB's drama "Angel"
this season. "She worked on the vampire-themed series "Angel"
and was part of a scene in which the soulless bloodsuckers descend
upon a cocktail party of lawyers," reports the Globe.
Persky
told them, "It becomes a bad lawyer joke, because the good vampire
refuses to save the lawyers," Persky said. "So that will be me
lying on the floor in a pool of blood."
