Changes: Cynthia Watros

Revision as of 19:46, 10 December 2006

Cynthia Watros played the role of Libby.

Background

Cynthia Watros is a native of Michigan. Her father, Bruce, is an electrical engineer and mother, Nancy, is a legal secretary; they divorced when she was 7. She has an older brother, Steven, who is also an electrical engineer. As a teen, Cynthia was diagnosed with immune thrombocyopenia, an autoimmune disease of the blood. For two years she required chemotherapy and a splenectomy. It appears to be in remission.

Cynthia attended Macomb Community College in Macomb County, Michigan and then the Boston University School for the Arts (graduating with a Bachelor of Fine Arts). She has an extensive television resume, including roles on daytime dramas Guiding Light (for which she won an Emmy in 1988) and Another World, as well as comedic roles on Titus (where she played the sensible girlfriend) and The Drew Carey Show.

Her husband, Curt, whom she married in 1996, is a Los Angeles restaurateur. Their twins, Emma Rose Marie and Sadie Anna Marie Gilliland, were born July 14, 2001 in L.A.

Trivia

She enjoys skiing and dancing.

Met Guiding Light co-star 'Kim Zimmer' while they co-starred in the off-broadway play "Four Dogs and a Bone."
She mentioned that when she joined the Drew Carey Show the cast of the show embraced her, especially Mr Carey. He sends flowers every week.
Throughout the latter part of season two of Titus she was pregnant with twins, her character Erin was not meant to be pregnant, so the fact was often disguised by having her standing behind objects, holding things in front of her (flowers, pillows, wedding dresses in garment bags, etc.), being filmed from above the waist and wearing dark clothes.
Pleaded guilty to DUI on January 12th 2006 after being arrested in Kailua, Hawaii on December 1st 2005. She was arrested within 15 minutes of Michelle Rodriguez who was arrested for the same crime. She was fined $370, banned from driving for 90 days and ordered to undergo 14 hours of counseling.
