Bio: Best known for her role on the long-running comedy "Who’s the Boss?" Alyssa Milano literally grew up on television. In addition to starring on "Charmed," she will be seen this winter in the romantic comedy feature film "Buying the Cow."

Born and raised in Brooklyn, N.Y., Milano got her start with the national touring company of "Annie." At 10, she was cast as Samantha Micelli in "Who’s the Boss?" and starred opposite Tony Danza for eight years. The show ended in 1992, and she continued to hone her talents on both the big and small screens. Most recently, Milano starred for two seasons on "Melrose Place," and in "Gold Rush," an original television movie on "The Wonderful World of Disney."

Milano starred in the title role in the feature comedy "Hugo Pool." Directed by Robert Downey, Sr. and co-starring Sean Penn, Malcolm McDowell and Richard Lewis, the film chronicled a day in the life of a Bel-Air pool cleaner (Milano). Her additional feature credits include the psychological thriller "Fear" with Reese Witherspoon and Mark Wahlberg, "Double Dragon," "Where the Day Takes You," "Commando," "Little Sister" and "Below Utopia."

On stage, Alyssa starred in "Tender Offer," a one-act play written by Wendy Wasserstein; "All Night Long"; and the first American musical adaptation of "Jane Eyre." She returned to her theater roots in 1991 when she starred in and produced a Los Angeles production of "Butterflies Are Free."

Milano has taken groundbreaking action to protect her rights and the rights of celebrities on the World Wide Web. She has won several copyright infringement suits, and has dedicated the settlement money to the launch of a new search index on the web, safesearching.com, a global community bringing a safe way to get the best entertainment information on the Internet.

Milano resides in Los Angeles, Calif. and spends her free time writing, attending dance classes and traveling.
