Mary Ann Taheny (credited as Teheny) plays the roles of Jenna and Moira.
Background
- Hawaii-based actor of Irish and Lebanese ancestry.
- Graduated from San Francisco State University, and was a member of the San Francisco Lamplighters Musical Theater Company.
- Most recently starred in the indie production Dark Clouds, a film about the internment of Germans in Hawaii during WWII.
Trivia
- A Honolulu Advertiser article from January 18, 2009 explicitly addressed the fact that Mary Ann Taheny played two different characters through the course of the show (Jenna in "Exodus, Part 2" and Moira in "Jughead"), pointing out that they were intended to be the same character and efforts were made to change her appearance to avoid fans drawing unwanted conclusions about a connection between the two characters. (Fans still drew conclusions and even dismissed the article as deliberate "misinformation", however.)
