Life and career

Sosnovska is perhaps best known in the United States for her role as the Polish businesswoman Lena Kundera on the soap opera All My Children. In 2003, her pairing with Bianca Montgomery (portrayed by Eden Riegel), the daughter of Erica Kane, and their subsequent kiss made television history in the United States. This was the first ever same-sex kiss in American soap opera history.^[1]

In Britain, Sosnovska was known for playing Fiona Carter in series 3–4 of the popular series Spooks, which she left mid-series owing to her first pregnancy in 2005.

She is married to the actor Sendhil Ramamurthy, who is known for his work on the series Heroes. The couple have one daughter and one son. Sosnovska played a small role in a third-season episode of Heroes.

In 2007, Sosnovska played the role of Debbie in Ocean's Thirteen. Sosnovska plays Jackie in the YouTube series of comedy skits, "Jackie and Lolitia" with British actress Corrinne Wicks as Lolita.
