Sandra Oh, ROCKS the house, yo…the first time I saw her was in 1996 when she starred as THE funniest irreverent assistant, Rita Wu, on HBO’s Arli$$.  Oh was brilliant in that role.
I was only so happy to see her playing and developing other brilliant characters such as Stephanie in Sideways and Dr. Cristina Yang in the hit ABC series Grey’s Anatomy.
She was born July 20, 1971 and is a Canadian Genie Award- and Golden Globe Award-winning actress.  Oh was born in Nepean, Ontario, to middle-class Korean immigrant parents Joon-Soo (John) and Young-Nam, who had come to Canada in the early 1960s.
