She started acting in little plays in her town, and then she got to be on TV shows like 'Full House' and 'Harry and the Hendersons'. But her biggest role was playing Topanga Lawrence on 'Boy Meets World'. She was so good, she even won an award for it!

Topanga Takes Over!

Danielle Fishel became famous as Topanga Lawrence in the show 'Boy Meets World'. Topanga was Cory's best friend and girlfriend, and she was always super smart and a little bit quirky. The show was on TV for many years, from 1993 to 2000.

Dancing and Reporting Fun!

Danielle Fishel is also really good at hosting shows. She was the host of a show called 'The Dish' and she reports for a website called PopSugar. And get this โ€“ she even became a contestant on 'Dancing with the Stars'! That's a show where celebrities dance and compete.
