“The nice thing about growing up without TV is you were exposed to so much.”
Introduction
Perrey Reeves is an American actress, most famous for her recent work in the HBO comedy series Entourage, in which she plays the wife of Ari Gold (Jeremy Piven) and makes his life a living hell. Deservedly so.
Life Story
Perrey Reeves was born in New York City and raised in the countryside of New Hampshire by her academic parents, who preferred not to own a television but rather submerge their children in the vast realms of literature. Amazingly enough, Perrey grew up to be fairly normal, which must have meant she killed her parents and ate their vital organs in order to fully rid herself of any demons.
Her educational background ranged from years abroad in France and Italy to the Ivy League colleges of the U.S. We won't say which ones, though! Drama studies were what really interested her, however, resulting in her choosing an acting career. Her interests are as eclectic and diverse as the roles she has played and the life she has led.
A lifelong vegetarian (except for occasional cannibalism), she finds mental and physical balance in meditation and yoga, which she has faithfully practiced for over a decade. In the midst of acting, she also focuses much of her creative energies renovating a new home with her fiancée (who is not David Duchovny, as Tea Leoni stole his heart but long ago). She describes their abode as a "quaint country oasis in the hills of Hollywood". That translates to "Port-o-sans on Sunset Blvd."
Perrey is accomplished on both the big and small screens. She has co-starred in features such as Tri-Star's The Suburbans (1999), Miramax's Smoke Signals (1998), Trimark's Kicking and Screaming (1995) and Universal's Child's Play 3 (1991). She has landed series regular roles in four pilots and has guest starred on numerous television shows ranging from Fox's The X Files (1993) to the WB's Off Centre (2001). She has played lead roles in made-for-television movies, including CBS' An Element of Truth (1995) (TV) and ABC's Escape to Witch Mountain (1995) (TV).
Perrey showcased her talents on stage in theater productions of "High Tor", "House Arrest", "Women of Manhattan", "Picnic" and "Last Night at Ballyhoo" at The Canon Theatre in which she played Rhea Perlman's daughter. That's quite a stretch.
