It’s Marilu Henner from Taxi!
Henner famously portrayed Elaine Nardo In Taxi, alongside Danny DeVito, Judd Hirsch, Tony Danza, Christopher Lloyd, Carol Kane and Andy Kaufman for seven years.
The actress was seen smiling as she greeted a friend as she parked her car in Los Angels on Friday.
The L.A. Story star looked casually chic in a knee-length black dress with a slight A-line skirt that skimmed over her toned torso.
Her dancer’s legs were on display, and she wore a pair of comfortable looking black flip flops.
Henner’s trademark auburn locks were styled in loose layers and she appeared to be wearing natural looking makeup behind her black sunglasses.
The thrice- married actress recently completed a run in the off-Broadway play My First Ex-Husband, with Marsha Mason, Julia Sweeney and Benja K. Thomas, written by The View host and comedian Joy Behar.
Several of her Taxi co-stars, including Judd Hirsch, Carol Kane and Tony Danza, took time to check out her performance at the MMAC Theater in New York City.
