Biography of Melissa Rauch
Melissa Ivy Rauch was born on June 23, 1980, in Marlboro, New Jersey, USA. She gained fame as an actress for her role as Bernadette Rostenkowski in the popular comedy series "The Big Bang Theory". Despite her small stature, standing at only 150 cm, Rauch's portrayal of Bernadette won over the audience, and her character became a mainstay on the show from the fourth season onwards. Rauch's distinctive feature is her low voice, which she borrowed from her parents. Her father's voice inspired the character's grating sounds, while her mother's voice influenced the character's soft murmurs.

Early Life and Career
Rauch developed an interest in acting during her time at Marlboro Middle School. She pursued her passion for acting further at Marymount Manhattan College, where she graduated in 2002 with a bachelor's degree in acting. During her college years, Rauch performed in shows such as "Miss Education of Jenna Bush" and became a regular actress on the television show "Best Week Ever" aired on VH1.

Rauch made her film debut in 2006 with the comedy "Delirious", followed by appearances in projects such as "12 Miles of Bad Road" (2007) and "Kath & Kim" (2008-2009). However, it was her role as Bernadette Rostenkowski in the hit series "The Big Bang Theory" in 2009 that brought her widespread recognition. Rauch's character quickly became a beloved part of the show's main cast, alongside other lead characters such as Howard Wolowitz, Sheldon Cooper, Leonard Hofstadter, and Penny.

In addition to her role on "The Big Bang Theory", Rauch has appeared in various films and TV shows, including "I Love You, Man" (2009), "The Bronze" (2015), and "Ice Age: Collision Course" (2016). She has also worked alongside her husband, Winston Rauch, in the short film "The Condom Killer" and the film "The Bronze", where she played the lead role and collaborated as a producer and screenwriter.

Rauch married Winston Rauch, a writer, screenwriter, and producer, whom she met during the production of "Miss Education of Jenna Bush". The couple continues to work together on various projects. Rauch has yet to receive any major award nominations, but she has been nominated six times as part of the ensemble cast of "The Big Bang Theory" at the Screen Actors Guild Awards.
