The actress appeared in the films ‘The Moderns’ and ‘Wildfire’ in 1988. A year later, she portrayed Lucy in the TV movie ‘The Neon Empire,’ which tells the story of Junior Morloff, a gangster who decides to build a casino in the small town of Las Vegas after learning that gambling is legal there.

1998-2008

The talented actress co-starred in the 1998 film ‘Body Count’ with David Caruso, John Leguizamo, Donnie Wahlberg, Forest Whitaker, and Ving Rhames. Despite having a well-known cast, the film was released in direct-to-video format due to poor audience response at test screenings.

She appeared in ‘Dogma,’ the fourth installment of Kevin Smith’s ‘View Askewniverse’ series. Prior to its release, the film’s irreverent portrayal of the Catholic Church and Catholicism sparked considerable controversy. In addition, organized protests delayed its release in several countries and resulted in a few death threats directed at Smith.

Fiorentino worked on a number of projects in 2000, including ‘Ordinary Decent Criminal,’ ‘What Planet Are You From?,’ and ‘Where the Money Is.’ While Thaddeus O’Sullivan’s ‘Ordinary Decent Criminal’ is loosely based on the story of the famous Irish crime boss Martin Cahill, the other two films are sci-fi comedy and drama crime dramas, respectively.

In the 2002 film ‘Liberty Stands Still,’ she played a woman threatened by a sniper alongside actor Wesley Snipes.

Linda then created two documentaries, one about research in juvenile diabetes and autism, and the other, titled ‘Equal Protection,’ about discrimination against Italian-Americans.

She appeared in ‘Once More with Feeling,’ an independent comedy-drama film directed by Jeff Lipsky and written by Gina O’Brien, in 2009. The film, which also stars Chazz Palminteri and Drea de Matteo, is about a man who pursues his childhood dream of becoming a singer by singing karaoke.

Aside from her work, she has been working on documentaries about juvenile diabetes and autism research, discrimination against Italian Americans in “Equal Protection,” and a daytime show about parenting techniques called “Motherhood” in December 2007. She also made a contribution in 2008.
