ALBANY, N.Y. — The star of “The Nanny” wants to go from playing nasally New Yawkers to succeeding Hillary Rodham Clinton in the U.S. Senate. Publicist Jordan Brown said Fran Drescher is serious about becoming the next junior senator from New York. Brown cited Drescher’s experience as an actress, advocate for women’s health and public diplomacy envoy for the U.S. State Department. The actress, 51, joins a field led by Caroline Kennedy and New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo. New York Gov. David Paterson will appoint Clinton’s successor.
