Deborah Kara Unger is a Canadian actor, best known for her films ‘The Game,’ ‘Payback,’ and ‘White Noise.’ She is one of those performers who have struck a great balance between mainstream commercial films and low-budget independent films. Born and raised in Vancouver, Canada, she studied acting at the ‘National Institute of Dramatic Art’ (NIDA), Australia.
