Meadow Mariangela Soprano, played by Jamie-Lynn Sigler, is a fictional character on the HBO TV series The Sopranos. She was born in 1982. In the early seasons, Meadow is introduced as a smart but spoiled party-goer, whose over-dramatic personality and state of being in denial reveal a somewhat troubled upbringing. In the later seasons, her character developed with her understanding of the reality of life, money, politics, and relationships. Her growth would foreshadow that of her younger brother, A.J. In 1997, Sigler was cast as Meadow Soprano. When her manager first told her about the audition for The Sopranos, Sigler thought she would have to sing as a soprano. From Wikipedia
