In addition to her multiple series-regular roles and films, she has also guest-starred on several television shows (fans of Star Trek will remember her as "Lal", Data's daughter on Star Trek: The Next Generation.) Hallie was born and raised in Los Angeles to late character actress Ann Guilbert ("The Nanny") and producer/writer George Eckstein ("Duel"). Hallie has been married to writer/director/producer Glenn Withrow since 1991. The two write and produce along with their daughter, Ivy Withrow. Hallie starred in their company's first feature film, The Mooring, an indie suspense thriller (distributed by Lions Gate Entertainment.)
