My Take
Annie Parisse is the sort of actress I recognize instantly even when I can't immediately place the name. Born Anne Marie Cancelmi in Anchorage, Alaska in 1975, she built a career that spans soap operas, prime-time drama, and the stage, which I respect because that range is genuinely hard to pull off. Her run as Alexandra Borgia on Law & Order is what cemented her for me, and her Daytime Emmy nomination for As the World Turns shows she earned her stripes early. A Fordham graduate with serious theater roots, she strikes me as a working actor's actor who values craft over flash.
