Laura Bell Bundy will star on Charlie Sheen's FX sitcom "Anger Management" as Dr. Jordan Denby. She's described as a brilliant psychologist whose recent divorce and wild mood swings turn Charlie's life into an emotional roller coaster. Bundy begins shooting this week.

Most recently, Bundy played Shelby on The CW's "Hart of Dixie." She also played a recurring role on CBS's "How I Met Your Mother" and the daytime soap "Guiding Light."

Bundy originated the role of Elle Woods in "Legally Blonde" on Broadway, which earned her a 2007 Tony Award nomination. She recently signed to Big Machine Records.

Sheen left the CBS comedy “Two and a Half Men” in 2011 and “Anger Management” premiered during the summer of 2012. The actor stars on "Anger" as Charlie Goodson, who became a therapist after his major league baseball career ended because of his emotional issues.

The show’s first season aired from June to August in 2012 and the second season debuted this past January. “Anger” has aired new episodes continuously since then.

Dear Reader,

About a year ago, I happened upon this statement about the Monitor in the Harvard Business Review – under the charming heading of “do things that don’t interest you”:

“Many things that end up” being meaningful, writes social scientist Joseph Grenny, “have come from conference workshops, articles, or online videos that began as a chore and ended with an insight. My work in Kenya, for example, was heavily influenced by a Christian Science Monitor article I had forced myself to read 10 years earlier. Sometimes, we call things ‘boring’ simply because they lie outside the box we are currently in.”

If you were to come up with a punchline to a joke about the Monitor, that would probably be it. We’re seen as being global, fair, insightful, and perhaps a bit too earnest. We’re the bran muffin of journalism.

But you know what? We change lives. And I’m going to argue that we change lives precisely because we force open that too-small box that most human beings think they live in.

The Monitor is a peculiar little publication that’s hard for the world to figure out. We’re run by a church, but we’re not only for church members and we’re not about converting people. We’re known as being fair even as the world becomes as polarized as at any time since the newspaper’s founding in 1908.

We have a mission beyond circulation, we want to bridge divides. We’re about kicking down the door of thought everywhere and saying, “You are bigger and more capable than you realize. And we can prove it.”

If you’re looking for bran muffin journalism, you can subscribe to the Monitor for $15. You’ll get the Monitor Weekly magazine, the Monitor Daily email, and unlimited access to CSMonitor.com.
