Reiko M. Aylesworth (born December 9, 1972) is an American film, television and stage actress, best known for her role on the television series 24 as Michelle Dessler.

Biography

Reiko Aylesworth tient son prénom de son ascendance japonaise pour un quart. Elle déménage avec sa famille à Seattle (État de Washington) à l'âge de treize ans. Elle fait ses études à l'université de l'État de Washington.

Elle a fait sa première apparition télévisée dans le soap opera On ne vit qu'une fois (One Life to Live, au cours de la saison 1993-1994). Elle interprète également divers rôles d'arrière-plan dans les films Vous avez un mess@ge (You've Got Mail, 1998), l'Ombre d'un soupçon (Random House, 1999) et Man on the Moon (également en 1999).

À la télévision, elle apparaît notamment dans trois épisodes des séries New York, unité spéciale (Law and Order SVU, première saison, 1999-2000), Un agent très secret (Now and Again, 1999-2000) et À la Maison-Blanche (The West Wing, saison 1 épisode 21).

Elle est ensuite engagée pour un des rôles principaux de la série Les Âmes damnées (All Souls, 2001), mais ce programme est interrompu après six épisodes en raison d'une trop faible audience.

L'année suivante, elle rejoint la distribution d'une autre série, Emma Brody (The American Embassy, 2002), également interrompue en cours de première saison (6 épisodes tournés dont 4 diffusés).

En 2003, elle a également joué le rôle principal d'un épisode de la seconde saison de la série Dead Zone intitulé En Abyme (Deja Voodoo).

S'agissant de son arrivée parmi les interprètes de 24 heures chrono, celle-ci ne se fait pas sans difficultés : Reiko Aylesworth postule tout d'abord, avant le tournage de la première saison, pour le rôle de Nina Myers qui échoit finalement à Sarah Clarke. L'année suivante, elle auditionne à nouveau afin d'incarner cette fois Kate Warner, rôle pour lequel on lui préfère encore une autre Sarah (en l'occurrence Sarah Wynter). Toutefois, les producteurs du feuilleton lui proposent d'endosser le rôle encore mineur de Michelle Dessler, cadre de second plan de la Cellule anti-terroriste de Los Angeles. Elle est à nouveau engagée pour la troisième saison, son personnage y acquérant une épaisseur supplémentaire liée à de nouvelles responsabilités au sein de la Cellule Anti-Terrorisme et au mariage de son personnage avec Tony Almeida, nouveau chef de la cellule.

Les scénaristes choisissent toutefois initialement de ne pas utiliser son personnage dans la quatrième saison, ce qui provoque de nombreuses protestations de fans de Michelle Dessler / Reiko Aylesworth. Cette levée de boucliers conduit la production à la réintroduire dans la distribution en qualité de chef de la Cellule à partir du 12e épisode et jusqu'au terme de cette 4e saison/journée.
Elle apparaît seulement dans le 1er épisode de la saison 5, en effet Michelle Dessler meurt dans l'explosion de sa voiture.

Reiko Aylesworth fait également une apparition dans le premier épisode de la 5e saison de la série Les Experts (CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, diffusion en 2004-2005).
En 2007, elle apparaît dans la saison 14 de la série Urgences (série télévisée) dans le rôle de Julia Dupree, l'aumônière de l'hôpital.
En 2008, elle tient l'un des rôles principaux dans Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem.
En 2009, elle interprète un personnage récurrent dans la série Lost : Les Disparus, nommé Amy, une jeune femme dont le mari est tué et que Sawyer et Juliet sauvent du même sort.
En 2009 toujours, elle fera son apparition dans Stargate Universe, où elle incarnera le personnage de Sharon Walker, compagne de Camille Wray (jouée par Ming-Na Wen), dans l'épisode Life.

Kathleen Kelly (Meg Ryan) is involved with Frank Navasky (Greg Kinnear), a leftist postmodernist newspaper writer for The New York Observer who's always in search of an opportunity to root for the underdog. While Frank is devoted to his typewriter, Kathleen prefers her laptop and logging into her AOL email account. There, using the screen name 'Shopgirl', she reads an email from "NY152", the screen name of Joe Fox (Tom Hanks) whom she first met in an "over-30s" chatroom. As her voice narrates her reading of the email, she reveals the boundaries of the online relationship; no specifics, including no names, career or class information, or family connections. Joe belongs to the Fox family which runs Fox Books — a chain of "mega" bookstores similar to Borders or Barnes & Noble. Kathleen, on the other hand, runs the independent bookstore The Shop Around The Corner that her mother ran before her. The two are shown passing each other on their respective ways to work, revealing that they frequent the same neighborhoods in upper west Manhattan. Joe arrives at work, overseeing the opening of a new Fox Books in New York with the help of his best friend, branch manager Kevin (Dave Chappelle). Meanwhile, Kathleen and her three store assistants, George (Steve Zahn), Aunt Birdie (Jean Stapleton), and Christina (Heather Burns) open up her small shop that morning.
