She is best known for her role as Casey Chappel Davenport on the sitcom Wings from 1994 to 1997, and for having played the mermaid Madison in the television film Splash, Too in 1988 (the role originated by Daryl Hannah in the film Splash).


Yasbeck was born in Blue Ash, Ohio, and graduated from The Summit Country Day School in Cincinnati. She then attended the University of Detroit Mercy, where she studied theater. After graduating, she moved to Los Angeles to pursue an acting career.
