Marisol Nichols
Marisol Nichols is an American TV actress known for her tough female roles such as Detective Karen Bettancourt on Blind Justice and CTU agent Nadia Yassir on 24. Marisol, who has two younger brothers, was born on November 2, 1973, in Hinsdale, Illinois. As a teen, she displayed a rebellious streak which led to missing school and drug and alcohol abuse.

When she was 17, Marisol realized the need for change and got herself into more

More productive activities. She tried out for a play in junior college, got the lead role, and thus began her life as a performer. She then enrolled in theater s and soon after made her way into Los Angeles. After a year of persevering through auditions, Marisol made her television debut in the very short-lived TV series My Guys (1996). Guest-starring roles and movie appearances kept her busy during the late '90s and early 2000.

Although lasting for only one season, Nichols got her taste of a starring role in the 2005 ABC action drama Blind Justice. After four auditions, Nichols landed a major role in the sixth season of the FOX hit series 24 as the right-hand woman of the head of CTU.

Off the camera, Marisol is actively involved with organizations which fight for children's rights and educate parents and the community on abusive psychiatric drugging of children. She resides in Los Angeles, California.

    Review hide show

    I only know her from her role on "24" and I think she did a decent job for someone coming into a veteran show in its sixth season and needing to win over the viewers who without a doubt missed a female presence like Michelle Dessler was. I also think that might be the main reason why I have only rated her a nine. A lot of the lines and actions that she was given on "24" were compared to that of Michelle Desslers character and many of them came off as repeaetd and the same. The way she carried herself around CTU and became somewhat involved with Milo as the season drew to a close made the viewers angry at the re-do of "Tony and Michelle".

    In the longrun, I do consider her an asset to the 24 team, though it would appear that her stay on the show will simply last the one season.

    Amazing actress - going to be on "24"! hide show

    I saw her in "In Justice" and thought she was amazing. Also loved her in "Blind Justice".

    I just saw on her website she's going to be playing the head of CTU on "24" next season - can't wait!

    You can see it here - http://marisol-nichols.com/news.php

    It also says she going to be in a movied called "Delta Farce" with Larry the Cable Guy - that should be interesting.

    She's an extremely beautiful woman. hide show

    Marisol is extremely pretty and a decent actress... and ever since I noticed her in Due South and Alias, she's been my one of my favourite "smaller" actresses.

    Too bad though, that she's is a Scientology member (according to websearches) and that puts a pretty big dent into what I think of her as a person.

    Nevertheless, I only have to look at her on the TV, so it's not too bad... ;-)

    Maybe she'll learn eventually.
