Pauley Perrette

Going under the name Pauley P., actress Pauley Perrette first gained notoriety with an extended arc on the acclaimed ABC drama Murder One. She followed that with guest spots on such shows as The Drew Carey Show and Frasier before landing a gig as a regular (using her full moniker) on the short-lived Party of Five spin-off Time of Your Life. After that series bowed, Perrette could be seen in small capacity in the big-screen hits Almost Famous and The Ring. In 2003, she finally landed in a series with staying power. This time it was the JAG spin-off Navy NCIS, a CBS drama that cast Perrette in a lead role alongside Mark Harmon. ~ Matthew Tobey, All Movie Guide
