Bio

Jaime Lee Kirchner is a German-born American actress best known for her starring role as Nurse Sonia Jimenez in the medical drama television series Mercy, from 2009-2010.

She also starred as Olivia Watson, a rival doctor working in the same surgical unit residency as Grace, in the medical crime drama television series The Mob Doctor, from 2012-2013.

Kirchner was born in Germany and raised in Clarksville, Tennessee. Pursuing her passion to act at a young age, she performed at The Roxy Regional Theatre, appearing in over 40 productions.

A trained dancer, singer and actress, Kirchner attended and graduated from NYU's Tisch School of the Arts. While at NYU, she starred as Julie Jordan in a main stage production of Carousel.

Shortly after graduating from NYU, Kirchner embarked on the national and international tour of Rent playing the role of Mimi Marquez. Upon completion of the tours, she landed a series regular role in the television series Just Legal, starring opposite Don Johnson and Jay Baruchel.

Realising that her life-long dream was to be on Broadway, Kirchner returned to New York and reprised her role of Mimi in Nederlander Theater's production of Rent on Broadway, garnering rave reviews.

Kirchner then relocated to Los Angeles and landed several guest-starring roles on television series and pilots including Enemies opposite Jeffrey Donovan, as well as a series regular role in Austin Golden Hour.

Kirchner also guest starred in an episode of Dollhouse opposite Eliza Dushku, playing the juicy role of a pop starlet with a death wish. The role enabled her to record her own music and perform a live concert.

Kirchner is an avid painter and visual artist with a collection of work which she hopes to showcase in the future.
