alongside Sarah Jessica Parker. Her next role, in 1999âsÂ
Election, is probably her best-known: she played Tammy Metzler, a young lesbian who runs for student body president out of spite for her all-American brother. The role earned Campbell an Independent Spirit Award nomination for best debut performance.Â
She then appeared in Judd Apatowâs cult TV seriesÂ
Freaks and Geeks as Amy Andrews, love interest to a young Seth Rogen.Â
Campbellâs former collaborators, including Apatow and CampbellâsÂ
Election costar Reese Witherspoon, took to Twitter on Wednesday to express their condolences:Â
Some of my favorite memories of making Freaks and Geeks are of watching Jessica Campbell and @sethrogen figure their relationship out in improvisations. Jessica was so funny and an amazing, thoughtful actress. What a terrible loss. https://t.co/R9Y5RTKNat
