Claudia Christian
Claudia Christian (born Claudia Ann Coghlan, August 10, 1965) is an American actress, known for her roles as Commander Susan Ivanova on Babylon 5, as Captain Maynard on Fox's 9-1-1, and as the voice of Hera on the Netflix series Blood of Zeus. She is also the voice of Lt. Helga Sinclair in Atlantis: The Lost Empire. She is the founder and CEO of the C Three Foundation, a proponent of the medication-based Sinclair Method for treating alcohol dependence.
Christian was born in Glendale, California, the only daughter and youngest child of Hildegard (née Christian), who worked as the director of Giorgio Beverly Hills, and James Michael Coghlan. Her mother is from Germany and her father has Irish ancestry. Christian and her three elder brothers were raised in Connecticut. Her elder brother, Patrick, was killed by a drunk driver while the family lived in Houston, Texas in 1973. The family later moved to California when she was 14. She changed her name by deed poll from Coghlan to Christian and moved to Hollywood to begin her acting career.
Her first screen appearance was on Dallas. Further work included television guest appearances on Falcon Crest; Riptide; Hunter; Quantum Leap; Matlock; Murder, She Wrote; L.A. Law; and It's Garry Shandling's Show; and as a series regular on Berrenger's.
She also appeared in TV movies Lies of the Twins with Isabella Rossellini, Calendar Girl Murders with Sharon Stone, A Masterpiece of Murder with Bob Hope and Don Ameche, Kaleidoscope with Jaclyn Smith and Coleen Dewhurst, and as Faye Dunaway's daughter in Columbo: It's All in the Game.
Christian's film career launched with Clean and Sober opposite Morgan Freeman and Michael Keaton, Never on Tuesday with Andrew Lauer and Peter Berg, The Hidden with Kyle MacLachlan, 20th Century Fox's The Chase with Charlie Sheen, the Columbia comedy Hexed, and Adam Rifkin's The Dark Backward.
From 1994 to 1998, Christian appeared as Commander Susan Ivanova on Babylon 5. She left the science fiction series when contract negotiations for the fifth and final season broke down. Series creator J. Michael Straczynski maintains that she chose to leave of her own accord, while Christian stated that she wished to return for the final season but was released when she requested a reduction in the number of episodes in which she would appear so she could complete another project. Christian did appear in the series finale, reprised her role in Babylon 5: In the Beginning and Babylon 5: Thirdspace, collaborated with cast members on the album The Be Five, and conceived her own interactive fan convention, Claudia Con UK, which took place in the UK.
Christian posed for a nude pictorial in the October 1999 issue of Playboy.
Following the success of Babylon 5, Christian guest starred on other series including Highlander: The Series, Judd Apatow's Freaks and Geeks, NYPD Blue, Everwood, Nip/Tuck, Grimm, Criminal Minds, Castle, The Mentalist, and NCIS, and voiced the role of Helga in Atlantis: The Lost Empire. In 2004, she returned to Laguna Beach, California, where she attended high school, to star in the American premiere of Michael Weller's play What the Night Is For with Kip Gilman and directed by Richard Stein. She also starred in the British series Starhyke, on Showtime's Look, and in the BBC comedy series Broken News. In addition, Christian played Janine Foster in the Doctor Who audio drama The Reaping and appeared in the films The Garden with Lance Henriksen and Half Past Dead with Steven Seagal.
