A native of Albuquerque, New Mexico, born September 3, 1978 (Virgo), Nick Wechsler grew up not that far from the real setting of "Roswell," a show that marks his second starring role on a network series. (His first was as Trek in "Team Knight Rider.") The fifth in a family of eight sons, Wechsler's parents and most of his siblings still live in New Mexico. His father is a sheet-metal worker; his mother is a secretary for the U.S. Forest Service. Inspired by the terrible student actors in his school, he began his acting career in high school, turning in what he modestly describes as "awe-inspiring performances" in every succeeding school play. Nick is rarely serious about anything - but he is very serious about his acting and highly critical of his own performances, always striving to do better. Nick moved to Hollywood immediately after graduating from high school, and spent the next six months trying to break into the business. He soon landed a small role as a purse-stealing punk in the TV movie "Full Circle." Shortly after, he was cast as Kevin "Trek" Sanders, a child prodigy conceived at a "Star Trek" convention, in the syndicated series "Team Knight Rider." He also appeared in "Silk Stalkings," "Lazarus Man" and the feature film "The Perfect Game." Nick currently resides in Los Angeles and is a fan of the 'X-Files.' He has a very wild sense of humor and keeps everyone laughing. He is learning to play the guitar, with pointers from costar and his TV dad, William Sadler. From the WB Roswell Press packet. Emilie de Ravin A native of Australia, born December 27, 1981 (Capricorn), spirited and charismatic young actress Emilie de Ravin joins the cast of "Roswell" after appearing in the last several episodes of first season as Tess Harding, the new girl in school who turns out to be the mysterious fourth alien who makes the special group complete. Impressively, Emilie landed the role within one month of relocating to Los Angeles. Emilie first garnered the attention of international audiences with her performance on the popular television series "Beastmaster: The Legend Continues" as the mischievous but powerful Curupira, Guardian of all Game Animals. Her rising stardom is based upon many years of performance experience and intensive training. She has studied ballet since the age of 9 and at the age of 15, Emilie was accepted into the prestigious and highly selective Australian Ballet School. She performed in productions of the Australian Ballet Company as well as Danceworld 301. Emilie studied acting at the National Institute of Dramatic Art in Australia, and with the Prime Time Actors Studio in Los Angeles. From the WB Media Site. |
