Madeline Rose Zima (born September 16, 1985 in New Haven, Connecticut, US) is an American actress. She portrayed Grace Sheffield on the CBS sitcom The Nanny, Mia Lewis on the Showtime comedy drama series Californication, and Gretchen Berg on the NBC series Heroes. She is the sister of actresses Vanessa Zima and Yvonne Zima. She and her sister Vanessa were discovered by Woody Allen for his movie, Alice (1990). She actually quit show business, the week when she was urged to come in for her sixth call back for The Hand That Rocks the Cradle (1992). She came back for one more audition and booked the role of "Emma". She booked the movie and has never stopped working since. It was both Madeline and Julianne Moore's first film and was directed by Academy Award-winning director and writer, Curtis Hanson. Madeline won critical notice for her first film role. By this time, the pilot of The Nanny (1993) was picked up and Madeline moved from New York to L.A., when The Nanny (1993) became a hit show. After a worldwide search in all English-speaking countries, Madeline was the choice to play Lucille Ball as a teenager, in the CBS mini-series, Lucy (2003) (aka "Redhead"). She followed that up playing the wicked stepsister of Hilary Duff in A Cinderella Story (2004). In a return to television, she agreed to play the mysterious and destructive character "Mia" on the hit Showtime series, Californication (2007).
