Yasmine
Bleeth, voted one of People Magazine's "50 Most Beautiful" of 1995,
stars as Caroline Holden on the internationally renowned, highly-rated, hit series
"Baywatch."
Yasmine began her career at the early age of 6 months,
when she was featured as the Johnson & Johnson Baby. At age six, she appeared
in a Max Factor campaign, along with Christina Ferrare. Her work in this campaign
caught the eye of fashion photographer, Francesco Scavullo, who subsequently included
her in his self-entitled book "Scavullo's Women." At the age of 12,
Yasmine was cast opposite Buddy Hacket in the feature film "Hey Babe."
Bi-lingual Bleeth attended United Nations International
School (UNIS) in New York City, where she continued modeling and acting. Bleeth,
then 16, won the role of "Ryan Fenelli" and the hearts of millions on
the ABC soap opera "Ryan's Hope." In 1991, staying in the ABC family,
she created the role as the sultry, misunderstood "Lee Anne Demerest"
on the highly acclaimed soap opera "One Life To Live." Her
feature films include the upcoming sci-fi thriller, "The Force," (Image
Productions) directed by Pierre David, whose directorial credits include the successful
"Internal Affairs." "The Force" casts Bleeth opposite Jason
Gedrick. In her next role, Bleeth appears in "Ghosts May Kiss" (Cafe
Productions) with Flea, bassist for alternative rock band The Red Hot Chili Peppers.
This romantic fairy tale examines the tragedy of lost love. Bleeth plays Lavinia,
lover of the ghost Cassanova, who is stuck in a child's pop-up book from the 17th
century. "Ghosts May Kiss" is the result of a collaboration between
1993 Venice Film Festival winner, director Mauro Borrelli and producer Jeff Kirshbaum.
Yasmine recently shot the follow-up video to the The Rembrandt's
number one single, "I'll Be There For You," entitled "This House
is not a Home" due out for release in September. In November, she will begin
production on "The Face," a Movie of the Week for NBC. Yasmine
also completed a full-motion live action entertainment CD-ROM entitled, "Maximum
Surge" (Digital Pictures) directed by award-winning special effects wizard,
William Mesa (Oscar nominated for the box office blockbuster, "The Fugitive").
Bleeth plays Jo, an ace computer engineer who is responsible for providing game
players with guidance and technical know-how to help defeat the evil dictator,
Drexel. "Maximum Surge" will be released this fall for PC, Mac and Sega
Saturn. Yasmine made her stage debut in the off-Broadway production
of the one act plays "Welcome to My Life" and "Looking for It."
Yasmine Bleeth currently resides in Los Angeles.
