Sarah-Jane Redmond is a British actress and acting coach, living in Canada, whose work has spanned film, television and theatre productions, often in science fiction roles.

Some of her roles have been in collaboration with screenwriter Chris Carter, who cast her in several of his television series. She is best known as Lucy Butler on Millennium (1997-1999).

Early life

Redmond was born in Cyprus, where her father was stationed during his career with the Royal Air Force. Her family moved to the Lake District in England, before emigrating to Canada when she was ten. She studied acting in Canada and England before founding an amateur theatre company, Holy Barbarians, to pursue stage work.{{Sfn|McLean|Henriksen|Spotnitz|Carter|2012|p=242}} Part of her study was at the acting school of Canadian actor William B. Davis.{{Sfn|Davis|2011|p=213}} During that time, she also worked as a dancer in Toronto.

Career

Redmond's first television role was in an episode of The X-Files; this introduced her to director David Nutter and writer Chris Carter, who later gave her a recurring role in the series Millennium,{{Sfn|McLean|Henriksen|Spotnitz|Carter|2012|p=243}} and a part in the 2008 film The X-Files: I Want to Believe.{{Sfn|McLean|Henriksen|Spotnitz|Carter|2012|p=246}} Her other television roles have been in the science-fiction shows Harsh Realm, Andromeda, Dark Angel, The Outer Limits and Smallville.{{cite web |url=https://sarahjaneredmond.com/biography.php |title=Biography of actress Sarah-Jane Redmond |first=Graham P. |last=Smith |work=SarahJaneRedmond.com |access-date=October 31, 2015}}
