Birthday: March 4.
Birthplace: Glasgow, Mont.
Occupation: Actress.
Current home: Los Angeles.
Marital status: Married to Eddie Bowz for two years.
Car: A black 1998 Cadillac Catera.
Working on: I play Dr. Lisa Catera on “Chicago Hope” on CBS-TV and I’m in the TNT movie “Houdini: Believe,” which airs in December.
The last good movie I saw: “Out of Sight.”
I stay home to watch: “La Femme Nikita.” I’m addicted to it.
The book I’ve been reading: “Other Powers” by Barbara Goldsmith. It’s the biography of Victoria Woodhull, who coined the phrase “free love.”
Favorite pigout food: Brownies, no nuts, then something salty, like pizza. I’m a sweet/salty girl.
Favorite performer: Juliette Binoche.
Prized possession: When I got married, my mother gave me a locket with a diamond in it. She got it when she got married.
Personal heroes: I was a dancer and Bob Fosse was a big inspiration. I love photography and Andre Kertesz is a favorite.
If I could do it over, I: Would have gone to college.
My fantasy is: I own a ranch in Montana. My friends and family are with me and we’re having a great time.
The worst advice my mother ever gave me: “You’re too young to wear black.”
People who knew me in high school thought I was: Square. My dad was in the military and we moved a lot. I was always the new kid in school. I was a dancer, and I didn’t party. I’d just go to school and dance class.
If I’ve learned one thing in life it’s: Don’t take yourself too seriously.
Most humbling experience: Meeting the nurses at the hospice where my mother died. They were strong, caring women. I feel silly saying I act when they help people every day.
The three words that best describe me: Good party thrower.
