Gina was born in New York City in 1969. A statuesque beauty whose first love as an actor was the stage, Gina Torres immersed herself in her craft by connecting with a live audience; the symbiotic energy that it created fueled her passion for acting and encouraged her to pursue a career in film and television in addition to her multiple Broadway roles. Born the youngest of three siblings in a close-knit Cuban family in New York, Torres received early voice training at New York's High School of Music and Art. Trained in opera and jazz, the talented mezzo-soprano also sang in a gospel choir, refining her versatile voice into a finely developed instrument with remarkable range. Although regular viewers of TV fantasy no doubt recognize her from recurring roles on Hercules: The Legendary Journeys and its sister show, Xena: Warrior Princess, the talented actress and singer also appeared in such popular small-screen action and drama series as Dark Angel, Cleopatra 2525, Firefly, Alias, Any Day Now,
24 and Angel. Married to actor Laurence Fishburne since September 2002, Torres' film roles have included 1996's Bed of Roses and The Matrix Reloaded (2003)

Zoë was brought up on a ship, she mentions this to her husband Wash.
The only other survivor of Mal's platoon from the war. Zoë is Mal's
first mate, she runs all of the main missions with Mal as his right hand
man. She met her husband while on Serenity, her husband being the pilot
Wash. At first sight and meeting with Wash she didn't like him. She
didn't want him piloting the ship let alone have thoughts about him
being her husband. But that happened somewhere down the line and the two
are happily married. Zoë's the soldier of the crew, she takes her
orders from Mal and never sways from them.
