Biography |
Sarah Wayne Callies is an American actress who is best known
for her role as Sara Tancredi in the American television
series Prison Break.
Callies moved to Honolulu, Hawaii with her family when she
was one. Throughout her youth, she expressed an interest in
acting through participating in various school plays at
Punahou School.
While her parents are professors at the University of
Hawaii, Manoa, Callies did not follow in their footsteps.
Instead, she chose to pursue a career in acting. After
graduating from high school, she entered Dartmouth College
in Hanover, New Hampshire. In conjunction with her studies,
she continued her involvement in theatre. She continued her
education at Denver's National Theater Conservatory where
she obtained her Master of Fine Arts degree in 2002.
On June 21, 2002, Callies married Josh Winterhalt, whom she
met at Dartmouth College. Winterhalt is a martial arts
teacher. On January 23, 2007, her publicist announced that
the couple were expecting their first child. In July 2007,
Callies and her husband welcomed a baby girl, Keala
Winterhalt pronounced Kay-AH-lah. She is close friends with
Prison Break co-star Wentworth Miller, saying: "I have the
great privilege of working opposite someone who is also a
great friend. That's something that makes my work easier, it
makes my time on set more fun and I think it makes the work
better". She was recently voted one of Maxim's "The Hottest
Women of Fall TV ´08". |
