I guess I missed this news, but back in 1999 Lorraine Bracco (she plays Dr. Melfi on The Sopranos) filed for
bankruptcy. Since then, she's paid off almost two million in debt but she still owes plenty in backtaxes and lawyer
fees. Her secret? Real
estate. Avoiding stocks, managing a real estate portfolio, and being cast in the HBO drama all helped her get back
on her feet. But can someone fill me in here on why she filed in the first place? Was there something she did that
knocked her into the hole?Lorraine Bracco: Still in Debt
