TALK about a class act.
She's is best known for her portrayal of strait-laced Winnie Cooper on The Wonder Years, but Danica McKellar has stripped off to promote her new book - about maths, FOXNews.com said today.
The actress-turned-mathematician, who is about to release her third book, Hot X: Algebra Exposed in August, posed almost naked for the latest issue of Maxim.
She explains to the magazine that her books are intended "to help girls who (believe) that stigma that math is only for guys or you have to be a nerd to like math".
Instead, she said: "Let’s make math fun and sexy and glamorous. Smart is sexy, that’s one of my main messages."
The actress, who has been married for a little over a year and is expecting her first child later this year, finds guys with good maths skills sexy.
"It’s really cool when a guy tips 20 per cent quickly and effortlessly so that when the check comes, he opens it and signs his name and done," she said.
McKellar said she enjoyed the racy shoot, calling it "fun".
"We went with a collegiate theme with some knee socks which are always fun," the 35-year-old said.
McKellar has previously admitted that her transition from playing Fred Savage's girlfriend in The Wonder Years to more adult roles "was a little bumpy".
She briefly returned to regular television with a recurring role in the 2002-03 season of The West Wing.
