Quick Facts Occupation ...

Career

Ettinger was originally cast as Martha Kent for Smallville, but during filming everyone realized that she was not right for the role, including Ettinger.[1] She turned to theater jobs, and when the opportunity for Carnivàle came up, she chose that project because of the theater-like experience.[2] Also appeared in the episode The Parking Garage in the popular TV series Seinfeld and in the 2000 movie Fail Safe by Stephen Frears. In 2006, Ettinger continued the momentum, landing a ten-episode run on another HBO series: the gritty, irreverent historical drama Deadwood, where she played Claudia.
