Mini Bio (1)

Jolene Blalock was born and raised in San Diego, California. At age 16, she left home to pursue a modeling career in Europe and Asia. It was on a 1998 trip back to the United States that Blalock was compelled to flex her untested acting skills, and after a few commercial appearances and some skill-sharpening at Stella Adler Academy and Toronto's Second City Improv and Second City Los Angeles, she made her acting debut on NBC's Veronica's Closet (1997). Already comfortable in front of the camera, Blalock's magnetism shined through the lens and she was soon cast as Medea in the made-for-TV movie Jason and the Argonauts (2000) alongside acting greats Dennis Hopper and Frank Langella. Blalock is best know for her role as the Vulcan Sub-Commander T'Pol on Star Trek: Enterprise (2001). In 2004, Blalock signed on to film Slow Burn (2005) opposite Ray Liotta. She then went on to play Captain Lola Beck in Starship Troopers 3: Marauder (2008). Blalock has guest-starred on the television series House M.D. (2004), CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (2000), CSI: Miami (2002) and Lost (2004).

Personal Quotes (8)

I like men who are very cool but also so brilliant that they are almost insane. Sean Penn, Gary Oldman, Tom Waits - men who would be flipping burgers if they hadn't found an outlet for their brilliant mind-sets. I also like men who have hands with big masculine veins that you can squish and move.
Spock was the sex symbol. A lot of people think it was Kirk. But no, it was really Spock.
I'm here for the character rather than the va-va or the voom.
Everything I do, I do with reckless abandon.
(April 2006) Without my Vulcan catsuit, Frankenstein wig and pointed ears, I don't get recognized. I love the fact I'm a shapeshifter who can go unnoticed.
(April 2006) Nudity is natural but not until a person accepts and loves who they are.
(April 2005) It took me several years to figure out who I am and a few more to accept what I discovered. Now I'm in the enjoyment stage of that process and it's a happy place.
(On the final episode of Star Trek: Enterprise (2001)) I don't know where to begin with that one... the final episode is... appalling.
