However, per Friedman, "Sarah Palin said that was insensitive and cruel" and Friedman felt "it was only a joke".[6] In an email concerning Palin's criticism of the episode, she said, "I guess former Governor Palin does not have a sense of humor."[7][8] She concluded, "In my family we think laughing is good. My parents raised me to have a sense of humor and to live a normal life."[8] Friedman also had main roles in episodes of SVU, "Competence", playing a pregnant young woman named Katie.[9] and Walker, Texas Ranger, "Special Witness", where she played a young woman in the Special Olympics who witnessed Trent Malloy being stabbed.

She also occasionally works as an assistant teacher for the Pathway program in UCLA, where she helps teach students how to live independently.[6] She has traveled to India and Japan, and speaks some Japanese.
