She attended Hoover Junior High in Indialantic, Florida. Jorja went to Melbourne High School in Melbourne, Florida for two years before being "discovered" in a model search at a local mall. Subsequently she enrolled as a drama student at the Lee Strasberg Institute in New York, under the tutelage of actor William Hickey. She describes herself as being overweight while growing up, with a prominent gap between her teeth. By her twenties, neither her wisdom teeth nor braces had appreciably helped, and she said "forget it" ;P Her name is pronounced as "Georgia." She is most often credited as Jorja Fox, but has also been credited as "Jorjan Fox." One of Fox's friends calls her "Horha", how Jorja would be pronounced in Spanish, as a nickname. Jorja is a part of Heather Grody's (Murmurs singer/guitarist) Honey Pot. She is also a supporter of the Human Rights Campaign and—being a dedicated vegetarian since the age of 20—has worked with PETA to help promote vegetarianism. She has a purse named after her by the Montréal company Matt & Nat, which designs Vegan purses.  Jorja has had numerous guest appearances on television shows such as ER, The West Wing and Missing Persons. She had also a small role in the movie Memento. Jorja is/has been currently staring as Sara Siddle on CSI. She has been playing this role since Friday, October 13th, 2000. Why Jorja left CSI? She left CSI, saying that she wanted a break "from the commitment of a weekly television series." At her request, the money collected during the "Dollars for Sense" campaign will be donated to National CASA, an organization dedicated to aiding foster children. You can read about it in this article ;P Jorja's interview in EW Since leaving CSI, Jorja Fox produced the musical Stay Forever: The Life and Music of Dusty Springfield, about the musician Dusty Springfield. ******************** Jorja's quotes Jorja about her life: On her future: Theater is one of my loves, so I'm open for that after 11½ years of working in  prime-time TV, for 'ER,' 'The West Wing,' and 'CSI.' I've never been to college, and I think about that. But I kept putting it off, and I am also thinking about having a child, and that's really important. Also, I want to do a lot of traveling and surfing - two of my hobbies. Maybe the universe will get tired of me. I have a one-woman little play about Dusty Springfield opening February 2nd, at the Renberg Theater in Hollywood. On plans beyond CSI: I’d love to be a producer when I grow up. I’m trying, like the play this summer and other than that I’m pretty open, I mean obviously I’ll keep acting as long as people keep being willing to work with me you know. I’m lucky, I’ve just done my tenth year on network television in a row, so I do think there’s a part of me that’s like, 'Man, I should just go work on a farm for a year! and then try and come back. Take a little break and get out of people’s living rooms. (laughs)  Joking on her personal style: Usually I’m tired, I haven’t slept, I’m drinking six cups of coffee a day.I would probably put me in the extreme low maintenance category. I love massage. That’s my big thing, even if I’m going to the spa, I’ll almost always go for the massage over any other treatment. I'd do a nude scene for world peace or if I were facing some serious jail time, but I'm also a sucker for a good bottle of wine and candlelight.On becoming a vegetarian: I was having a meatball sub one day in Brooklyn, and it just clicked. I was in the middle of that sandwich, but I put it down—and I never ate meat again. If you just cut down [on meat] or tried [vegetarianism], you might find that you love it. And the list of things that you’d be doing positively to affect the planet and the next seven generations that come after you is humongous. On the alternative spelling of her name: My mom made up Jorja. I spent the first 10 years of my life convincing people that I knew how to spell my name. Everyone tried to tell me I couldn't spell. I'm not a good talker. I'm not very verbal, so I don't have alternative names for most things. I'm lucky if I can get something out that's more than two syllables. In English. When asked if anyone had ever made a charming play on her last name how they were rewarded: I stayed for breakfast. On what she likes to splurge on: Chocolate, coffee, pizza. And beer. I could show you my six-pack, which is not like most actresses' six-packs in this town!  On her hobby of playing rock music: I get together with friends and play music from time to time, in the adult-alternative vein. I don't have the time to actually be in a band. Someday, when CSI is over and done, maybe I'll start a new band. Mostly I play guitar; most people don't care for my singing. But I love to sing, so I do it a little bit.On what she would be doing if she wasn't an actress: I have no idea. I have no job skills. I was actually discovered when I was 15 in this really little town in Florida. I was at the mall one day and I got an opportunity to go to New York City and do some modeling, which was great. That paid my rent for a couple of years. I worked at a kennel for a long time. That was probably one of the best jobs I've ever had but definitely one of the more obscure. On marriage: Just to think about it gives me heart palpitations. It's like I can't breathe. It sends shivers down my spine! But I still believe in true love.  On being scientific: Dissecting corpses, it's not really my cup of tea. I'm more of an artistic type. In terms of CSI and how successful its been I just kind of feel like one of the luckiest people on the planet. On being a CSI: I couldn't possibly do it. I have a tremendous amount of respect for the folks that do it. I think they're amazing. They're really brave, and the burn-out rate is very high actually. People do it for a certain amount of time and then they move on to other stuff. Jorja about GSR: On her relationship with William Petersen : I sit every once in a while and I think about plays and films I  can do with William Petersen into our eighties. He's the most incredible scene partner I've ever had. And again, I've never had the opportunity to work with somebody for seven years like that. It's a really unique experience as an actor to have a scene partner for that long. And then at the end of the seven years to think more highly of them than you did in the first year, to find them even more complex and interesting…. He's a great friend and I feel like I couldn't have scored any higher than getting William Petersen to be my boyfriend on TV. It's been amazing. It's a dream and a joy to work with William Petersen. He is funny, he is very smart, and he is wild! What’s not sexy about William Petersen?On Grissom revealing their relationship: Yea, I leave him alone for five minutes and he tells everyone  that were having this fabulous little secret love affair...assuming that you know Sara makes it out ok, who knows whats going to happen. On Grissom and Sara's romance: After we dropped the proverbial bomb at the end of last season [six], we decided to just let it breathe a little bit – sort of like, ‘well now you know, and here's what it looks like.’ It was a great first half of the year for them – it was very pleasant and there wasn't a lot of tension, we just wanted the dust to settle. From here on out, there's going to be some interesting stuff that takes place between the two of them and I was really excited about it. And I kind of decided at the beginning of the year that, even though I was under the umbrella of CSI - I, personally, was in a romantic comedy.On playing out the Sara and Grissom relationship: You have to think all over again, really who is this person and how would she respond and how would she be in this situation. Because she had a couple of boyfriends that she liked, but her sights have sort of always been on this one man.  On how she feels about the Sara and Grissom story line: These two people, they have a lot in common. They’re both really not great with people in many respects and they’re emotionally detached in many respects. If two people like that can kind of find each other, there’s something really beautiful in that. On Greg's feelings for Sara: Eric "broke up with me" in a magazine last summer. We were working a little tension on the show between Greg and Sara, when I read in a magazine that Eric was done with all that. I called him and said, "If you want to break up with me, at least do it in person." It's so great to have your private relationships play out in the press. Jorja about CSI: On the Early Show about the ending of CSI season seven: I’m not a big fan of Sara being in any kind of  peril. I think that when you'd play a character as long as I have...what going on like thirty-six years? No, I’m kidding seven years. You become very, very, very, very, very, very close to that character in ways that, uh, are difficult to describe so intrinsically as an artist you know my desire is to protect that character and keep that character safe. I mean, I don’t want to be the victim of this jerk, this terrible serial killer and then the part - the actor part of me was thrilled that I had something meaty to do in the last episode of the season.George Eads - on Jorja's return for season eight of CSI: If we find ourselves in the situation that she's not with us next year, we'll be in trouble, there's only one Jorja Fox. Jorja - On Sara coming back for season eight at the opening of CSI: If I did know, I'd smile and tell you I didn't. But I hope Sara's alive and well and back for a sexy season eight romance.  On season seven of CSI: This has been a great year for Sara. It's really rare that you get a season seven and it's hugely rarer that you can go into season seven with this brand new idea of a storyline. Grissom and Sara have been doing this tango for a long time but after the finale in season six, it really left people with the sense that not only is something going on, but how long has this been going on. So it's really fun to have this new thing to play. Billy and I thought that Sara and Grissom thing had been played out and that people were sick of it and wanted new storylines. I was really surprised to find out that there was space for it, that people would like to see what would happen between them. On the worst smelling thing in the lab: Burned human skin. Sometimes we wish the show were scratch-and-sniff, because we have to pretend that we're encountering bad smells all the time. Maybe that's for season four or five. On who she would like to see as a victim on CSI: Larry David! I'd love to see him naked in the morgue. I've never met him, but I love his show. He's brilliant and funny, and it would be great to see him play a corpse.  On the CSI theme song: That's still, you know, my favorite part of the show. Every week is the song with the credits. It was unbelievable that we were able to get that song. And it was Billy's idea. Billy Peterson was like, 'No, this song. This song.On CSI influencing people to go into forensics: It's surprising, and it's amazing. The numbers are up a lot, which is great, because there is a lack in the field in general. There's a lack of money, there's a lack of people doing it, so more people joining would be good. I hope that everybody sticks to it. On the CSI spin-offs: I don't think the spin-offs have hurt our show, but I think that they were certainly motivated by a certain level of greed. And they weren't anybody's creative brainchild. They came out of a way to make as much money as quickly as possible. I think if you offer somebody a really great piece of cake, they're going to take it. But then if they're offered cake every day, you might start to want ice cream. I may have wished, you know, that there weren't any spin-offs of CSI but I think that the shows have been able to sort of find their own legs.  Jorja about Sara: Sara is my favorite character I've ever played. It's a joy every single week to get to go to work and be that person…I still feel like there's a pretty healthy sense of mystery around her after six years. It's a testament to the writers that there are still some secrets and some parts of her and puzzles of her own that people would like to know more about. On how she is like her character, Sara: I am probably more like her than any other character I've played, which is lucky considering that this has been going on for six years…I do like her a lot. She's much smarter than I am. But I also like to focus on one thing for a while. We have OCD in common. I'm very idealistic, like Sara. (Jorja, like her characer Sara Sidle,  is a bit pessimistic when it comes to weddings.) I am not really acting in this episode, I just show up. Deep down inside, I think there is a romantic that lives inside Sara, but I think she thinks that a lot of people get married for the wrong reason and the wrong way and this wedding is a good example. When asked what she liked most about her character: I love that I’m playing someone who’s like worlds smarter than I am! It’s a really great feeling that - always a good reason to get out of bed, like 'I went to Harvard and Berkeley and studied physics, nuclear fission…'  Jorja's Milestones 2004 - Fired from "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" due to a salary dispute and failure to report for work for the new season; returned to work the following week, after what was called a misunderstanding. 2001 - Played the murdered wife of Guy Pearce's amnesiac in Christopher Nolan's ambitious feature "Memento" 2000 - Co-starred on the forensic crime drama series "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" (CBS) 1999 - Starred in the independent comedy "The Hungry Bachelor's Club" 1999 - Had a supporting role in the road movie "Tiara Tango", an independent feature screened at the Austin Film Festival 1997 - Appeared in the NBC miniseries "House of Frankenstein 1997" 1997 - Featured in the independent drama "How to Make the Cruelest Month" 1997 - Made cameo appearance in the groundbreaking "coming out" episode of the ABC sitcom "Ellen" 1995 - Had a supporting role in the comedy feature "The Jerky Boys"; also acted in the black comedy "Dead Funny" and the romance "Alchemy" 1993 - Acted in the HBO "Lifestories: Families in Crisis" special "Dead Drunk: The Kevin Tunell Story" 1993 - 1994 - Portrayed a Chicago police investigator on the ABC series "Missing Persons" 1992 - Featured in the three-part "ABC Afterschool Special" presentation "Summer Stories: The Mall" 1989 - Made feature acting debut in "The Kill-Off" 1986 - Retired from modeling at age 18 (date approximate) 1984 - Began modeling after winning a local contest at age 16 (date approximate) 1971 - Relocated with family to Florida at age three (date approximate) Co-founded the Los Angeles theater company Honeypot Productions, which produces plays written by and starring company members, including Fox; Portrayed the recurring character of Dr. Maggie Doyle, an out lesbian, on the hit NBC medical drama "ER"; Had a recurring role on "The West Wing" (NBC) as Secret Service Agent Gina Tuscano. ******************** Here are some of my favourite pictures ;) Enjoy ;D  H     pr  And some videos supporting Sara Sidle/Jorja Fox ...
