Jorja Fox Bio
Jorja-An Fox was born on July 7, 1968, in New York, New York. Jorja is an American actress. She is perhaps best known for her work as Sara Sidle in the hit CBS crime drama CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, and for starring in two other successful television dramas, ER, and The West Wing. In 2003, she was ranked #80 in Stuff magazine's list of the 103 sexiest women. She is annually nominated for PETA's "World's Sexiest Vegetarian".
Fox is the youngest child of Montreal-born parents, and was raised on a narrow barrier island in Melbourne Beach, Florida. She describes herself as being overweight while growing up, with a prominent gap between her teeth. By her twenties, neither her wisdom teeth nor braces had appreciably helped, and Fox said "forget it." After attending Melbourne High School for two years, she began a modeling career after winning a local contest. She subsequently enrolled as a drama student at the Lee Strasberg Institute in New York, under the tutelage of actor William Hickey.
After appearing in several minor films and TV series, including a 1993 episode of Law & Order, Fox entered the limelight in 1996 when she joined the hit NBC television series ER, as the no-nonsense vegetarian and lesbian medical intern Dr. Maggie Doyle. Playing up that fame, Fox appeared on the coming out episode of Ellen "The Puppy Episode Part 2", 30 April 1997. In 1999, she was cast as Secret Service Agent Gina Toscano on NBC's series The West Wing, where she starred for one season. Fox has appeared in the films Velocity Trap, Food for the Heart and she also appeared briefly in Memento, playing Guy Pearce's wife. In 2000, she became one of the characters on the CBS series CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, in which she portrayed a Las Vegas forensic scientist named Sara Sidle. She announced that the show's 2007-2008 season would be her last. On 2007-11-15, the episode "Goodbye and Good Luck," marked the character's final regular appearance in an episode of CSI. On May 22, 2008, TV Guide's Michael Ausiello reported that Jorja Fox will be returning to CSI: Crime Scene Investigation in the ninth-season premiere. The episode is set to air October 9th, 2008. She is the co-founder of Honeypot Productions, an independent avant-garde theatre company in Los Angeles. The company has produced five original plays, four of them written by Fox. The fourth play, Lovely Stanley, is a comedic romp about the women's bowling circuit. Her friend and HoneyPot co-founder Heather Reid wrote Dear Bernard, which Fox helped produce. Fox is also a musician: she plays guitar badly, she says and recently purchased a drum kit. She also sings and writes songs, most notably the song "Lullabye" for the movie Traveling Companion, as well as the song "Satellite" which she published on her official web site. Jorja and CSI co-star Marg Helgenberger sang "Stand by Me" as a duet for What a Pair 4!!, an annual charity event to raise money for breast cancer research. She currently resides in Los Angeles with her dog Ali and two cats, Rumplestiltskin and Sid Poitier.
