Medalion Rahimi

Born to Iranian parents of Muslim and Jewish faiths in Los Angeles, California, Medalion Rahimi began modeling at the age of four years, but favored dance and performance. Roles in local theater and high school led to a theater degree from UCLA, as well as her first screen role on a 2013 episode of "Criminal Minds" (CBS, 2005-). Rahini worked steadily in guest shots for television series like "New Girl" (Fox, 2011-) before earning a recurring turn as a princess from a fictitious Middle Eastern country on Shonda Rhimes' short-lived caper series "The Catch" (ABC, 2016-17). Rahini reteamed with Rhimes for the Shakespearean riff "Still Star-Crossed" (ABC 2017-).
