Mayim Bialik (born December 12, 1975, San Diego, California, U.S.) American television and film actor and neuroscientist best known for her recurring roles on the American situation comedy series Blossom (1990–95), where she played the title role, and The Big Bang Theory (2007–19), where she played the character of Amy Farrah Fowler from 2010 to 20...
Bialik, daughter of Beverly and Barry Bialik, was a child actor who got her first roles in television in an episode of the series Beauty and the Beast (1987–90) in 1987 and in two episodes of The Facts of Life (1979–88) the following year. Her first film role was a minor part in the 1988 horror movie Pumpkinhead. Her resemblance to American actor Bette Midler made Bialik a natural choice to play the younger version of Midler’s character in Beaches in the same year. Bialik returned to television with a recurring role on the series Webster (1983–89) from 1988 to 1989. She made additional appearances on other popular American television shows, including Murphy Brown (1988–98 and 2018–19), MacGyver (1985–92), and Doogie Howser, M.D. (1989–93).
Bialik won the title role in the television series Blossom, a coming-of-age situation comedy about a teenage girl living with her father and two brothers, in 1990. The show made Bialik, whose looks were less glamorous than most teenagers on television and in movies at the time, a teen star.
After Blossom, Bialik did mostly voice-over work on animated series such as Johnny Bravo (1997–2004), Kim Possible (2002–07), and the video game X2: Wolverine’s Revenge (2003). During this time, Bialik attended the University of California–Los Angeles (UCLA) to study neuroscience; she specialized in studies of adolescent obsessive-compulsive disorder in children with the genetic disorder Prader-Willi Syndrome. She graduated with a bachelor’s degree in neuroscience in 2000 and continued at UCLA, receiving a doctorate in neuroscience in 2007.
Bialik had taken a break from acting in 2003 to focus on her marriage (she was married to American businessperson Michael Stone from 2003 to 2013), motherhood, and her studies. She returned to acting in 2005 with a recurring role in the HBO television series Curb Your Enthusiasm (2000– ) and also made appearances in other programs.
Bialik was cast as the bookish but complex Amy Farrah Fowler in the popular TV series The Big Bang Theory in 2010. She appeared in 203 episodes and won two Critics’ Choice Awards, four Emmy Award nominations, and a SAG Award nomination. During this period, Bialik launched a website in 2015 called GrokNation, featuring posts about culture, feminism, science, relationships, and her time on The Big Bang Theory. In addition, Bialik announced she had formed a production company, Sad Clown Productions, in 2019.

After the death of Alex Trebek, the beloved longtime host of the American television game show Jeopardy!, Bialik served as one of a series of guest hosts during a search for Trebek’s replacement starting in 2021. In 2022 she was named one of the show’s permanent cohosts, along with Jeopardy! winner Ken Jennings. Bialik also hosted Celebrity Jeopardy! (2022– ) and other Jeopardy!-related shows. In December 2023, Bialik announced that she had been informed she would no longer be hosting the show.
Bialik launched a podcast and YouTube series called Mayim Bialik’s Breakdown in 2020, in which she sought “to dispel myths and misunderstandings about mental health.” The podcast featured Bialik’s interviews with American actors Matthew McConaughey, Molly Ringwald, Dustin Hoffman, and others. She was the main character and executive producer of the television series Call Me Kat from 2021 to 2023. Bialik authored the books Mayim’s Vegan Table (2014), Beyond the Sling: A Real-Life Guide to Raising Confident, Loving Children the Attachment Parenting Way (2012), Girling Up: How to Be Strong, Smart and Spectacular (2017), and Boying Up: How to be Brave, Bold and Brilliant (2019).
