Jill Hennessy

   Does it get any better than this?  Hmmm... that would be a "no".  Jill Hennessy is a drop-dead-gorgeous actress who also possesses talent and intelligence.  Her show-business career began inauspiciously: she played guitar and sang for money in the subways of New York City.  She got her break when she was cast in a small part in the movie "Dead Ringers"; her identical twin sister Jacqueline also appeared in the film.  She went on to play ADA Kincaid on the TV show "Law and Order" for 3 years; later she was cast in the title role on "Crossing Jordan".  That's where I first noticed her; what really impressed me, though, was when I saw her on Carson Daly's late-night talk show.  Carson handed her a guitar and asked her to play something by several musicians from different genres; Hennessy was up to the challenge each time.  She also spoke of her trip to Ireland, where she played a Pogues song in a pub.  Later I learned that Hennessy is multilingual.  (She's fluent in German, for example.)  When she was young, she had to prepare a lot of meals for her family; out of necessity, she learned to cook, and she's now the owner of Hennessy Tavern in Northvale, New Jersey.
