Suzana Drobnjakovic (Serbian Cyrillic: Сузана Дробњаковић on May 17, 1973),[2] known by her stage name Sasha Alexander,[3][4] is an American actress and television director.

Alexander was also in an episode of the short-lived Fox comedy series Greg the Bunny, in which she played the role of a lesbian TV Guide reporter and shared an onscreen kiss with Sarah Silverman.

Alexander appeared in the films Lucky 13 and All Over the Guy, as well as He's Just Not That Into You (in the role of Catherine), the independent movie The Last Lullaby, and Yes Man (as Lucy) starring Jim Carrey.

Her character replaced Vivian Blackadder, played by Robyn Lively, who had appeared in the backdoor pilot episodes "Ice Queen" and "Meltdown" on JAG.

Alexander's two year tenure on the show ended in May 2005 when her character, Kate, is killed by a terrorist who shoots her in the head during the last few seconds of the season-two finale, "Twilight".

[10] In subsequent television series work, episode counts were considerably smaller, and her character portrayals required less physical effort than her role on NCIS.

Alexander co-starred with Angie Harmon, who played Boston Homicide Detective Jane Rizzoli, Isles's best friend on the show.

[12] In 2015, Alexander began a recurring role on Showtime's Shameless portraying Helene Runyon, one of Lip Gallagher's college professors.
