Life

Law was born in Philadelphia,[2] and grew up in Deptford Township, New Jersey.[3] Her mother is Taiwanese and her father is of German and Italian descent.[2] As a teenager, she was crowned Miss New Jersey Teen USA.[4]

Law married fellow actor Keith Andreen in January 2013.[5] In December 2018, she gave birth to a daughter.[6]

Career

Law worked alongside director Adrian Picardi with producers Eric Ro and Don Le, to create a low budget web series called The Resistance.[7] Picardi was the series' official creator and director. The show was later picked up by Starz which led to Law's casting in Spartacus: Blood and Sand in 2009.[8] In 2011, Law completed an action-oriented project called "3 Minutes" with director Ross Ching, producers Don Le and George Wang, starring Harry Shum, Jr., Stephen "tWitch" Boss (the runner up on season 4 of Fox's So You Think You Can Dance), and herself.[4][9]

Since 2013, she has had a recurring role on The CW television series Arrow as Nyssa al Ghul, the daughter of the notorious leader of the League of Assassins, Ra's al Ghul.[10][11]

In 2019, Law was cast as co-lead in the CBS pilot Alive, as medical examiner Elizabeth Lavenza, whose husband Mark Escher (Ryan Phillipe) is bought back to life by the mysterious Dr Frankenstein (Aaron Staton).[12] Later that year she joined the cast of CBS's Hawaii Five-0 for the series' tenth season.[13][14]
