Hewitt starred in and executive-produced the hit cable film “The Client List,” for which she received a Golden Globe nomination for Best Performance by an Actress in a Mini-Series or Motion Picture Made for Television. The success of the film led to a weekly series of the same name, in which Hewitt starred and served both as an executive producer and episodic director for two seasons. She also starred in, executive-produced and directed several episodes of the hit network series “Ghost Whisperer,” which ran for five seasons. Her additional television credits include a starring role in the hit drama “Criminal Minds,” which she joined for the series’ 10th season; the Hallmark Hall of Fame telefilm “The Lost Valentine,” opposite Betty White; and a recurring role on the comedy series “Hot In Cleveland.” 

On the big screen, Hewitt is known for her role as “Julie James” in the “I Know What You Did Last Summer” franchise.

In addition to her acting, producing and directing credits, Hewitt is a singer and songwriter. Her most recent studio album, “BareNaked,” became her first album to chart in the United States, on the Billboard 200 chart.

Hewitt’s debut novel, “The Day I Shot Cupid,” was released in 2010, with the book becoming a New York Times Best Seller the week of its release.
