Eva La Rue Biography
Sexy and talented, with a memorably exotic look (due to a multiethnic ancestry), model-turned-actress Eva La Rue (also occasionally billed by her married name, Eva LaRue Callahan) launched her career in print work, with a heavy emphasis on covers for such periodicals as Woman's World, Latina, and Cosmopolitan en Español. La Rue segued into acting in the late '80s and early '90s, and landed a number of nonfiction television assignments, first as cohost, with the legendary Dom DeLuise, of the gag-laden series revival The_New_Candid_Camera (1991), then as hostess of the Miss America Pageant and the Lifetime network special Weddings of a Lifetime.
The ever-versatile La Rue concurrently tackled scripted roles as well. After supporting parts in many a Hollywood programmer (Robocop_3, Ghoulies III: Ghoulies Go to College, Mirror_Images_2) and several years as a regular on the soap All_My_Children, she earned stellar notices for her portrayal of Mouseketeer-turned-beach bunny Annette_Funicello in the telemovie A Dream Is a Wish Your Heart Makes: The Annette Funicello Story. She went on to perform in recurring roles on the popular series Third_Watch and Soul_Food. La Rue culled her broadest fan base, however, for her portrayal of lab specialist and grant writer Natalia Boa Vista on the crime series phenomenon CSI: Miami. Nathan Southern, Rovi
