After appearing in a handful of commercials and stage productions as a child, this levelheaded actress put off her entertainment career until she graduated from Barnard College. Grayden racked up an impressive amount of off-Broadway credits before appearing on the small screen with a regular part on the short-lived sci-fi series
John Doe. While recurring roles on
Six Feet Under and
Joan of Arcadia raised her profile and helped her win the part of an injured soldier's wife on the critically lauded Iraq War drama
Over There. Despite rave reviews, the show was canceled after its freshman season but Grayden bounced back with a part on the post-apocalyptic drama
Jericho.
