Emily Wagner was born and raised in New York City's Upper West Side, right around the corner from Zabars. She began her acting career at age 6 as the youngest member of the theatrical troupe The Merry Mini Players. At 13 she starred in the 70's NBC/PBS series High Feather, already stretching as an actress by playing Cathy Ehlers, the 'healthy farm girl.'
By the time she got to Vassar, she had put acting on the back burner and earned a BFA degree in Art History and Fine Art. Post college, she returned to NYC to study acting with Susan Batson, then moved to Los Angeles where she has played paramedic Doris Pickman on ER for the past 11 years.
Emily guest-starred on several tv shows and feature films. She co-created, wrote, produced and starred in several short and feature films, some with her brother Andrew (Counting, South Main), some with her longtime collaborator Julie Delpy (Blah, Blah, Blah) and some with both of them Looking for Jimmy (2002), Careful) all of which went on to have impressive festival runs. She is also a serious artist and shows with the Acuna-Hansen gallery in LA's Chinatown and Mixture Contemporary Art in Houston, Texas. September 2003 Emily was nominated United Diva of the Month by United Divas. |
