AClaudia
is well-known to Australian audiences, but new to viewers
in the UK and America.
Claudia was born on the 11 October 1972 and was raised
in Sydney, Australia. She has spent
the majority of her adult life abroad, including stints
in Europe and New Zealand. While
she and her family were living in London she discovered
her favourite breakfast cereal, Lucky
Charms. Claudia has appeared in many of Australia's popular
TV series and movies. She is
well-known to Australian audiences for her portrayal of
the hermaphrodite Jill Mayhew in
"Good Guys Bad Guys," and also the leading role
of Angela Kostapas a Greek lawyer in the
weekly series "City Life" which was a very young,
fashion-oriented show.
Jill Mayhew
in "Good Guys Bad Guys" Claudia has also appeared
in other Australian productions
such as, "A Country Practice," (shown on ITV
in the UK) "Police Rescue," (shown on BBC1
in
the UK) "Water Rats," (shown on Channel 5
in the UK) "G.P." and "Seven Deadly Sins."
Claudia’s
other talents include professional singing with a concentration

Asked about ever having a 'life-changing' moment, Claudia
replied: "I was on a plane with
shocking turbulence.

SThe
guy sitting next to me, who had been trying to hit on
me for most of the flight, asked
if he could hold my hand. I told him there was a distinct
possibility that we were going to
die. I suggested he send out some messages of love to
people he cared about, rather than
spending the last moments of his life trying to pick up
a complete stranger. I realized then
that while I was calm and capable in a crisis, I was also
a hard-faced bitch."
Claudia has
recently finished shooting season four of "Farscape"
in Sydney, Australia. She
was also nominated for a Saturn Award for Best Actress
for her role as Aeryn Sun, and has
won the award 'Best Actress' Year 2000 by scifi ign,
and 'Best Actress' by TV Zone magazine.
