Grace Park

Grace Park is an in-demand genre tv veteran.
In fact, over half of her credits are genre productions!
She's appeared in most of the Canadian-produced sf / fantasy series of the past decade (usually in several episodes at a time), and with good reason...
She displays a great acting range from comedy to drama, and handles action / stunts with panache.
Genre appearances include...
Hawaii 5-0 [2010] (Kono Kalakaua)
The Border
(Special Agent Liz Carver)
Human Target(Eva Khan)
Battlestar Galactica
/ Battlestar Galactica: Razor / Battlestar Galactica: Face of the Enemy (webisodes) / Battlestar Galactica: the MiniSeries / Battlestar Galactica: the Plan / (Lt Sharon Valleri Agathon aka Athena / Lt Sharon Valleri aka Boomer / Cylon Number 8 [all of them])

There doesn't appear to be an "official" Grace Park website, but there are quite a few fansites including...
Note: there's also a talented pro golfer named "Grace Park", so if you Google, you'll probably find some of her sites as well.
You might want to add "Galactica", "Battlestar" or "actress" to "Grace Park" when using a search engine...
Athena and Boomer were two different characters on the original Battlestar Galactica.
Maren Jensen played Lt. Athena, daughter of Cdr Adama and sister of Capt Apollo.
Herb Jefferson Jr played Lt. (later Col.) Boomer. NOTE: Col. Boomer was a character on Galactica: 1980, a sequel series most fans consider apocryphal / non-canon.
Other performers to play Kono Kalakaua include Zulu aka Gilbert Lani Kauhi, in Hawaii 5-0 [1968-72]
