Talking about television, she signed her first TV show ‘A Man called Hawk’ in 1989 and subsequently appeared in a couple of episodes of ‘Law and Order’, which made her a little bit more popular with the TV productions and since then, she has appeared in more than 40 TV shows, with ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ being currently on air.
