Introduction

Yvonne Strahovski is best known for her portrayal of CIA agent Sarah Walker on the NBC sitcom/science-fiction series "Chuck," which began airing in September 2007.

Life Story

Yvonne was born in Maroubra, New South Wales, a suburb of Sydney, as Yvonne Strzechowski to Polish parents who had emigrated from Warsaw. She spent her high school years attending Santa Sabina College, Strathfield. She graduated of University of Western Sydney's Theatre Nepean in 2003 with a Bachelor of Arts in Performance and received straight A's in her subjects.

Strahovski first started her career in Australia appearing in film and TV roles, including a turn on satirical show "Double the Fist" and a part in Aussie drama series "Headland."

In 2007, she sent in her audition tape for the show "Chuck" while in the United States auditioning for roles in other shows. She was contacted by the producers of "Chuck" the next day to come in to run lines with Zachary Levi. The producers called her back a week later letting her know she had been cast as Sarah Walker. Six weeks later, she moved to the United States and became a star. See how easy it is to be famous? Luckily Strahovski, who is now going by the phonetic spelling of her headache inducing birth name, makes the show enjoyable. She adopted the phonetic spelling of her name at "Chuck" producer Josh Schwartz's behest for the sake of easier pronunciation.

Though she is new to world of TV, there's no doubt that she will soon be one of the hottest stars in Hollywood. Recently she's been featured in the films Gone (2007), The Plex (2008), Persons of Interest (2009) and The Canyon (2009) . Upcoming film roles for Yvonne include I Love You Too (2009), Matching Jack (2010), and Shadows from the Sky (2010).

In 2009, Strahovski was rated #94 on Maxim's Hot 100 list. In January 2010 Yvonne defeated 127 other female TV stars over seven rounds of voting to become the winner of the first "Girl on Top" contest, which means that she is the favorite TV leading lady of E! Online readers around the world.
