Claudia Christian Biography
Claudia Christian does it all, she's an actor, a writer, a musician, a singer, a director and she continues to expand her horizons. Christian made one of her most memorable performances in her feature film debut in the cult classic The Hidden opposite Kyle MacLachlan. She went on from there to star in over 40 features including Clean and Sober, starring Michael Keaton and Morgan Freeman, the leading role of "Hexina" in Columbia's comedy Hexed, opposite Charlie Sheen in 20th Century Fox's The Chase and as a photographer in Adam Rifkin's quirky feature Never on Tuesday. Fans saw Claudia at the box office recently starring opposite Steven Seagal in the action thriller, Half Past Dead. Currently, Christian completed the new British Sci-Fi series Starhyke in which she played the lead role and also directed several episodes. She now is moving on to a BBC project called Broken News which starts filming August 2005.

Claudia also starred in the HBO movies Running Home and The Substitute 3: Winner Takes All, co-starring Treat Williams. Making her mark in independent films, Claudia donned a fat suit and stepped into the rude and crude role of "Elaine Kilgore" from her hit indie film "True Rights". The film and won numerous awards on the indie circuit. Additionally, Claudia recently finished "The Failures", working again with acclaimed director Tim Hunter (The River's Edge).

In addition to her film credits, Christian's work in television is also extensive and includes the lead role as Commander Susan Ivanova in the Warner Bros. syndicated internationally recognized top cult television series "Babylon 5". She has also starred in two TNT produced tele-films based upon the series. "Babylon 5" has developed an enormous European following and twice won the Hugo award for best science fiction television series. Christian received Sci-Fi Awards and Universe Awards best actress nominations for her role in the series.

Other television credits include numerous movies of the week starring with such greats as Faye Dunaway, Peter Falk, Bob Hope, Don Ameche, Sharon Stone and Jacklyn Smith among many others. She's also been seen frequently on network television in shows such as, "Everwood", "Freaks and Geeks", "Highlander", and "NYPD Blue" just to name a few.

One of Claudia's many passions is music and writing. She wrote both lyrics and music for her first CD "Taboo" which she co-produced with Michael Jay (Celine Dion). She also has produced and sung on two additional albums, "Claudia Squared" and the jazz & blues album, "Trying to Forget". Her long awaited fourth CD "Once Upon a Time" has her working again with the extremely talented musician and her Babylon 5 co-star Bill Mumy and recent winners of the John Lennon Song writing award, Share and Bam Ross. Always expanding her musical horizons, she also went to Scotland to record an album for the first ever Sci-Fi Musical "Area 51".

Claudia also lends her voice to many different venues including live-action internet on line games such as "Earth and Beyond", Playstation games such as "Shrek 2", commercials, such as Jaguar Automobiles and her highly successful series of audio books from the Radio Repertory Company of America, Anne Manx. The last installment of Anne Manx entitled Trouble On Chromius, won the Golden Headset award for Best Ensemble Cast in 2003. On the horizon is the highly anticipated animated feature, "Geppetto's Secret", coming soon from DVX Entertainment.

Claudia also just finished a psychological thriller here in the states called "River to Havilah", co-starring Lance Hendrickson. Currently this film is in post production.
