Cynthia Preston Biography

Cynthia Preston wasn't one of those girls who dreamed of becoming an
actress. Rather she fell into acting quite by chance. It was while she
was attending high school in Toronto, that her mother suggested a
self-improvement course in order to help her overcome extreme shyness.
As a result, Cynthia took up modeling at fifteen, and soon found
herself working overseas in Japan for months at a time.

Not long after graduating from high school, she was summoned by CBS
talent scouts, and landed the role as Jill Clayburgh's daughter in the
made for television movie, Miles to Go. After that, she continued to
find work in some rather offbeat, campy movies like Pin, The Brain and
Prom Night III, as well as doing quite a bit of voice work on a variety
of animated projects; perhaps the most popular that of Princess Zelda
on the Mario Bros. cartoon series.

Over the years she has kept busy with interesting choices, like playing
the mentally disturbed groupie in Whale Music, the lost soul in the
creepy supernatural thriller Convergence, and the complex wife in the
Showtime TV series Total Recall 2070. Cynthia has done quite a bit of
episodic television including the series Less than Perfect, The Trouble
with Normal, Forever Knight, The Outer Limits, Friday the 13th, The
Hitchhiker among many others. Fans of The X-Files may remember her from
the episode "Folie a Deux", where she played a telephone solicitor who
gets transformed into a white-eyed, skin-peeling zombie.

Some of Cynthia's latest credits include The Thin Blue Lie for
Showtime, an episode of the syndicated Sci-Fi series Andromeda, an
episode of the popular CBS series C.S.I., and the sit com Two and a
Half Men. Cynthia also will appeared in Thom Fitzgerald's new film
The Event which premiered at the 2003 Sundance Film Festival.

In December 2002 Cynthia joined the cast of the popular soap General
Hospital playing the character Faith Rosco.
