Andrea Parker: Career

Parker began ballet training at age 6 and at age 15 she joined a professional dance company. She quit her career in ballet after three years of touring and trained to become an actress while working as a bartender. Her first documented film role was at age 19 in the movie Rented Lips in which she played a dancer/nurse.

Andrea Parker appeared in Married with Children as a Go-Go Dancer in 2 episodes - Prom Queen: The Sequel (1989) and Prom Queen: Part 1 (1989). Andrea got her break in television playing a nurse on the award-winning Seinfeld episode "The Contest" in 1992. After that first speaking role, she had several other guest-starring roles in television series and movies, most notably a recurring role in ER as Linda Farrell, the love interest of Dr. Doug Ross, and as Caitlin Pike in JAG. She was a body double for Julia Roberts in the movie Pretty Woman; hers are the legs seen in the opening scene of the main character zipping up her boots. She also did several pilots before she gained a cult-following for her role as Miss Parker on the NBC television series The Pretender.

Parker says she felt compelled to play the role of the complex, cynical, powerful and intimidating yet somewhat tortured Ice Queen because her name was "all over the script." Miss Parker is a character many viewers love and others love to hate. Parker also played the minor role of Catherine Parker, Miss Parker's mother in The Pretender, a role that is in stark contrast to the character Miss Parker.

After The Pretender was canceled by NBC in 2000, Parker did another guest spot on JAG before signing on to reprise her role as Miss Parker in the telemovies for The Pretender, which aired on TNT in 2001. She then returned to series television in 2002 and starred in the ABC network comedy Less Than Perfect, playing Lydia Weston until it was cancelled in 2006. She has made several guest appearances on television talk shows and celebrity events such as the various celebrity poker tournaments.

Parker is noted for her support of various charities such as the National Hospice Palliative Care Organization, Glenn Siegel's My Good Friend charity organization, The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's research and Project Angel Food. Parker is also trained as a stunt-driver and can handle firearms.

Vanessa Rousso not only aced the law school exam, but she also finished seventh in the World Poker Tour World Championships.

With less than 3 years of professional play behind her, Vanessa Rousso has already earned close to $2 million playing at live poker tournament and at online poker site. while earning a law degree on the side. Vanessa Ruosso earned more than $680,000 in 2005 on the World Series of Poker and World Poker Tour circuits. She is also in the 7th palce in a field of more than 600 of the World's top professionals at the World Poker Tour Championship event.

This poker hottie has won 4 World Series of Poker (WSOP) events, including an 8th place finish in this year's $5,000 event. Most recently, she finished in 1st place at the World Poker Tour Borgata Open, winning almost $300,000.

She also cashed the ladies event in 45th place, and picked up an extra couple of grand when she won one of the Palms' Daily Tournaments. In the fall Vanessa returned to law school, and played poker whenever she had a chance either online or traveling to small buy-in tournaments on breaks.

A woman winning the World Series is just a matter of time, she maintains, as the number of skilled female poker hotties in the biggest action continues to elevate. The fact is, Vanessa says, women at poker tables tend to be viewed through a filter of faulty perceptions. "Women are perceived as very tight players, that we can't bluff, but the fact is we've been bluffing for centuries. We're better at it than you guys . . .And so the best women players can use this misconception or stereotype to their advantage."
