On the record
Zuzanna Szadkowski was born in Warsaw, Poland, on October 22, 1978. Her family emigrated to the United States when she was three and settled in Fort Wayne, and the city is where she grew up: she played her first role in a sixth-grade production of Kiss Me, Kate at Blackhawk Middle School and graduated from R. Nelson Snider High School in 1997. She went on to Barnard College and took an M.F.A. from Harvard's Institute for Advanced Theater Training. She is best known as Dorota Kishlovsky, the loyal housekeeper on The CW's Gossip Girl (2007–2012, seventy-nine episodes) and its web spin-off Chasing Dorota; her other credits include The Sopranos, The Knick, Girls, and Search Party.
