When this Latina looker joined the cast of
NCIS at the start of its third season, she made quite a first impression as a multilingual Israeli super agent, capable of killing her own kin if necessary. But in real life, the Chile-born but Miami-raised de Pablo is a much more light-hearted lady, who cohosted the Hispanic talk show
Control as a teen and studied musical theater at Carnegie Mellon University. She appeared on stage and in the soap
All My Children before landing her first series regular gig on the short-lived courtroom drama
The Jury.
After a brief stint in the musical
The Mambo Kings on the West Coast,
she snagged her signature
NCIS gig.
