Nigel Bennett (Actor) .. Andrew Mannering
Born: November 19, 1949
Birthplace: Wolverhampton, Staffordshire
Trivia: Best known as a distinguished thespian -- an actor with an aura of earnest authority about him -- Nigel Bennett actually held the status of a multihyphenate, prolifically working as not merely an actor, but an author, director, and occasional producer as well. In terms of dramatic roles, Bennett cultivated the majority of his professional experience on the British stage in a host of productions, including The Country Wife, Loot, Hamlet, and Art to name merely a handful. After a decade and a half spent in this arena, Bennett relocated to Canada in 1986 and shifted gears to focus on film and television work, frequently though not always essaying character roles. The many filmed projects in which Bennett appeared include the Gene Hackman/Anne Archer thriller The Narrow Margin (1990), the Anthony Hopkins/Aidan Quinn epic western Legends of the Fall (1994), and the direct-to-video sci-fi thriller Darkman III: Die Darkman Die (1996). In 2007, Bennett both produced and signed for a supporting role in the Chaz Thorne-helmed black comedy Just Buried (2007).

Sofia Milos (Actor)
Born: September 27, 1969
Birthplace: Zurich
Trivia: Though her family would ultimately settle in Italy, Sofia Milos was born to a Greek father and Italian mother in Zurich, Switzerland. By the time she reached adolescence, Milos had demonstrated a clear knack for the liberal arts, and, in addition to proving herself a skilled painter, had become fluent in Italian, French, German, Greek, Suisse, Spanish, and English. Though she wouldn't begin acting until later in life, Milos nonetheless got used to public scrutiny when she won a beauty contest at the age of 14, beginning a successful modeling career a year later -- so successful, in fact, that the money she earned modeling throughout France, Italy, Japan, Russia, and the United States paid for her education at the School of Business and Economics in Switzerland.In 1990, Milos decided to take up residence in the United States, where she spent time living in New York before settling down in Los Angeles. Shortly after her arrival, Milos began attending acting classes at the Beverly Hills Playhouse, which is led by renowned acting coach and director Milton Katselas. Milos worked primarily in theater circles until 1993, when she was cast in Café Americain, NBC's short-lived sitcom co-starring Valerie Bertinelli and Maurice Godin. Though the show wasn't a hit, the right people noticed her potential, and Milos began racking up an impressive television resumé. She appeared on Friends in 1995, made a guest appearance on Mad About You in 1996, and landed a reoccurring role on Caroline in the City from 1997-1998. Though she made her feature film debut in 1999 -- she played one of Tim Meadows' voluptuous love interests in The Ladies Man -- it wasn't until her performance as mob boss Annalisa Zucca on HBO's The Sopranos that she would achieve mainstream recognition.HBO continued to showcase Milos' talents in Larry David's Curb Your Enthusiasm, for which she played an entirely improvised role as the girlfriend of Richard Lewis. After several more unsuccessful television pilots and a guest spot on ER, Milos starred as a long-suffering widow opposite Jason Isaacs and Lupe Ontiveros in Passionada (2003). Following the film, Milos landed a regular role as detective Yelina Salas in the hit television drama CSI: Miami.
