Yes and yes.

Ms. Fisher, 51, whose attorney contacted the company in late June, charging sexual harassment, added, “I have resolved my claim with Mark privately, without litigation, and I do not intend to comment on it further.”

EDIT

the wsj.com is reporting that the "actress" is Jodie Foster [sic]:

Woman Is Named
In H-P Controversy


An actress named Jodie Foster was confirmed to be the woman linked to the resignation of Hewlett-Packard CEO Mark Hurd. She had been hired by H-P as a marketing contractor.

online.wsj.com

and nytimes.com corrects their report to state that Ms. Fisher's age is 50.

EDIT2

Now wsj.com has the correct last name.
