Olivia Munn

Olivia Munn has established herself as one of the top actresses on the rise in Hollywood. Munn starred as Sloan Sabbith on Aaron Sorkin's hit HBO political drama The Newsroom, which followed behind-the-scenes events of the fictional Atlantis Cable News (ACN) channel. She teamed with The CW to develop a 1970's female sportscaster drama series, which will be produced by her CBS Television Studios-based company.

Variety recognized Munn as the 2014 Breakthrough Actress winner at the Variety Breakthrough of the Year Awards. Her film credits include Mortdecai, Deliver Us From Evil, Magic Mike and Iron Man 2. Munn had an arc on FOX's Golden Globe and Primetime Emmy-nominated comedy New Girl and appeared in the Primetime Emmy-winning Showtime environmental documentary series Years of Living Dangerously from James Cameron and Jerry Weintraub.

Munn is a spokeswoman and activist on environmental issues, including working with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and DoSomething.org on the "Green Your School Challenge," as well as teaming up with the Sierra Club.

An Oklahoma native, Munn spent the majority of her childhood in Tokyo, Japan and speaks fluent Japanese. She attended the University of Oklahoma after moving back to the U.S. and relocated to Los Angeles.

In 2006, Munn joined G4 network's popular Attack of the Show! as a co-host. She later joined the Primetime Emmy Award-winning Comedy Central series The Daily Show as a correspondent in 2010, becoming one of five female cast members to ever appear on the show.

Her first book, "Suck It, Wonder Woman!: The Misadventures of a Hollywood Geek" was also released that year and debuted on The New York Times and Los Angeles Times best seller lists.
