Jenna Fischer, better known as Pam on The Office, broke her back in four places on Monday, according to E!Online.  Her official representative said that she was walking down a steep marble staircase when her heel slipped and she fell, fracturing her lower back.  Fischer is resting in her hotel room now, waiting to fly back to Los Angeles.  Her husband is with her, as is close friend Angela Kinsey.  She is expected to recover within four to six weeks.  This should put her back to normal around the time the summer hiatus ends and filming for the next season begins, although fans shouldn't be surprised if her character takes it easy for the first few episodes.

Fischer's character Pam is widely popular among fans of The Office and the show itself is a surprise hit among genre fans as well as more mainstream viewers.  We at Firefox News wish her a speedy recovery.
