Meadow Mariangela Soprano, portrayed by Jamie-Lynn Sigler, is a fictional character on the HBO TV series The Sopranos. In the early seasons, Meadow is introduced as a smart but spoiled partygoer, 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. The stark contrast to her brother A.J., she is an achiever in the family and the source of pride for her parents. Her growth would foreshadow that of her younger brother, A.J played by Robert Iler.
In 1997, Sigler was cast as Meadow Soprano.[1] When her manager first told her about the audition for The Sopranos, Sigler thought she would have to sing as a soprano.[2]
