Alicia Coppola



Birth Place: Huntington, NY
Date of Birth / Zodiac Sign: April 12, 1968, Aries
Profession: Actor; model
Although this exotic beauty possesses a famous film-biz surname, she isn't related to Francis Ford (although movie producer Denise Di Novi is her cousin). Primarily a small-screen player, Coppola started out as a host on the MTV game show Remote Control before landing a three-year stint on Another World. She graduated to prime time with an impressive succession of guest appearances on some of the hottest series of the '90s (NYPD Blue, Chicago Hope). Able to project intelligence and an appealing toughness, she was perfectly cast as a savvy stockbroker on the Wall Street-set Bull. But when the show was canceled, she returned to guest spots, including recurring roles on NCIS and American Dreams.
