Arija Bareikis

Bareikis' TV appearances have generally been in productions in her adopted hometown of New York, appearing on the daytime dramas "All My Children" and "One Life to Love" (ABC) and "Another World" (NBC), and making her primetime debut in a 1997 episode of "Law & Order." In addition, she had a recurring role on HBO's hard-hitting prison drama "Oz" in 1999. Playing Tricia Ross, the sister of a slain inmate who falls in love with Said (Eamonn Walker), the prison's Muslim leader. A spark between the two strong and temperate individuals is evident at their initial meeting to discuss a potential wrongful death lawsuit. The two continue their budding relationship although Tricia's race threatens to ruin Said's status as a spiritual and political leader. Bareikis and Walker's quiet and understated scenes together stood out as some of the more emotionally powerful and well-acted segments of the already exceptional show.
