Born and raised in Tennessee, Neal originally hoped for a career as a dancer
and spent one year studying in Philadelphia after high school. Relocating to
Manhattan, she made her Broadway debut in the short-lived, all-black revival
of the Gershwin musical "Oh, Kay!" in 1990 and supported herself doing
commercials. Branching into acting, Neal appeared in an episode of "Law &
Order" and landed a recurring role of a street-smart teen on the ABC soap
opera "Loving" in 1994. A memorable turn as a young breast cancer patient on
"Chicago Hope" led to the regular role of Lt. J.J. Fredricks on the NBC sci-fi
series "seaQuest DSV" during the 1995-96 season. Following her banner year,
the actress appeared as a waitress and singer who begins an interracial
romance with a bartender in the acclaimed independent film "Restaurant"
(1998). After establishing herself in features, Neal returned to the small
screen to play the exasperated wife of a successful suburbanite in "The
Hughleys" (ABC, 1998-2000; UPN, 2000- ). |
