While this handsome, African-American actress has never truly risen to star status, she is an accomplished performer of stage and screen who, strangely, never seems to age. She's played a host of diverse characters — doctor, detective, judge, junkie, teacher — yet she is consistently believable. Her television work, which includes stints on St. Elsewhere and Hill Street Blues as well as a number of TV-movies, has won her critical praise and four Emmy awards. A married mother of two, Woodard has always maintained a low personal profile, even when she signed on to one of TV's hottest shows, Desperate Housewives, in 2005.

Nicole Beharie as Dee Roberts in Samuel Goldwyn Films' 'American Violet'
Apr. 14, 2009
A new generation's Erin Brockovich. Nicole Beharie plays the brassy yet gracious, justice-fighting, real-life heroine Dee Roberts in American Violet. During the 2000 election, Roberts -- an innocent 24-year-old single mom of four who's dragged from her job, accused of dealing drugs -- battles government corruption and repeated drug sweeps in her small Texas town.
