Nicollette Sheridan, born in England and raised in London and Los Angeles, is perhaps best known to TV audiences for portraying the beautiful, powerful and manipulative Paige Matheson in the long-running drama series, "Knots Landing." She returns to series television as Edie Britt, the serial divorcee whose romantic conquests keep the neighborhood buzzing on ABC's hit series, "Desperate Housewives."

One of Sheridan's first feature film appearances was in the hit Rob Reiner-directed comedy, "The Sure Thing." In the film, she was the object of John Cusack's cross-country quest to find "the sure thing." In addition to "Knots Landing," her television credits include TV miniseries and movies such as "Lucky/Chances," "Indictment: The McMartin Trial," "The People Next Door," "The Spiral Staircase" and "Dead Husbands.”

She has also starred in the feature film comedies "Noises Off," opposite Michael Caine and Carol Burnett, "Spy Hard," as Agent 3.14 and opposite Leslie Neilsen, and "Beverly Hills Ninja," with Chris Farley and Chris Rock.
