Raised on a narrow barrier island, Fox won a modeling contest and moved back to her birthplace of New York to pursue an acting career after High School. Enjoying moderate success for independent films, Fox entered the lime-light in 1996 when she appeared on the hit NBC show, 'ER', as the no-nonsense medical intern and recurring character, Maggie Doyle, who happened to be a lesbian. Playing up that fame, Fox went on to guest star (uncredited) on the now-infamous 'coming out' episode of Ellen (aka. "The Puppy Episode Part 2", 04/30/1997).

After that brief spurt of news, Fox went on to film the movies Velocity Trap, and The Hungry Bachelors Club. In 1999, Fox was cast as the recurring character of the Secret Service Agent Gina Toscano on NBCs 'The West Wing.' Rumor has it she will still provide guest appearances on The West Wing. Fox also appears in the recent movies Memento, Forever Fabulous and Down with the Jones.

A dedicated vegetarian, aspiring vegan, and admittedly squeamish, Jorja Fox stars in CBS' new crime/drama, 'CSI: Crime Scene Investigation' as Sara Sidle while living in LA.
