She also played the ditzy Sherri in the 2005 film Must Love Dogs. The New York Times' Arts & Leisure section devoted an entire piece to her on the film's opening weekend, and Peter Travers of Rolling Stone raved that "not since the young Goldie Hawn has an actress put a funnier, feistier spin on dumb."

Spiro also appeared in Patrick Sisam's The Year of Getting to Know Us. The film, which premiered at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival, stars Jimmy Fallon, Lucy Liu, Tom Arnold and Sharon Stone.

Spiro's additional credits include IFC's Alone with Her, which made its debut at the 2006 Tribeca Film Festival, and guest appearances on Cold Case, Out of Practice, CSI: NY and Harry's Law.

Born and raised in Manhattan, Spiro studied at the Circle in the Square Theatre School and briefly attended the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts in London.

She currently resides in Los Angeles.
