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.
