Eva LaRue

Born Eva Maria LaRuy on December 27, 1966.

Eva was a teenage beauty queen. She was crowned Miss California Empire 1984 in Irvine, CA.

She played Dr. Maria Santos Grey on All My Children from 1993 to 1997 and again from 2002 to 2005.

LaRue received a Daytime Emmy Award nomination in the category of "Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series" for AMC. She also received a nomination in 2004 in the category of " Outstanding Original Song" for composing the song "Dance Again with You" which was used as her character's theme song during a storyline in which Edmund became paralyzed from the waist down.

LaRue also performed in television movies over the years, appearing as Annette Funicello in a biographical movie of the former Mouseketeer and also in the adaptation of Danielle Steel's Remembrance as Princess Serena.

While on All My Children, LaRue developed a notable friendship with Sarah Michelle Gellar, who played the role of Kendall on the soap.

In the fall of 2005, LaRue began the role of Natalia Boa Vista on CSI: Miami. It was revealed in the end of season 4 that Eva's character Natalia Boa Vista was the mole in the lab reporting back to the FBI. As of Season 5, La Rue is a full time cast member and her character is now a trainee CSI under the reluctant tutelage of Ryan Wolfe.

I want to add that this in my humble opinion one of the most beautiful women on the planet and the best looking soap actress in the US ever.
