Ali Larter stars in NBC’s award-winning ensemble drama series Heroes as Tracy Strauss, a smart, savvy, well-connected Washington lobbyist from Beverly Hills, Calif., whose reputation as an "ice queen" gains extraordinary significance after she manifests the ability to instantaneously plunge temperatures, create ice and freeze anything — or anyone — in contact solid. Recently, she championed Nathan Petrelli’s (Adrian Pasdar) appointment to the U.S. Senate and stumbled upon an unknown, hidden family, including an identical sister, Niki Sanders, and nephew, Micah (Noah Gray-Cabey). Heroes follows the lives of ordinary people who discover they possess extraordinary abilities.
In April 2009, Larter stars in the thriller Obsessed opposite Beyonce. She recently starred with Milla Jovovich in Resident Evil 3: Extinction, and in the independent films Marigold and Crazy. Larter starred in the successful first and second installments of the Final Destination franchise, and opposite Reese Witherspoon in the hit film Legally Blonde. In addition, Larter enjoyed a successful run on the New York stage in The Vagina Monologues.
Making her feature film debut in the blockbuster hit Varsity Blues, Larter includes among her credits A Lot Like Love; American Outlaws, starring opposite Colin Farrell; Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back for writer-director-actor Kevin Smith; The House on Haunted Hill, a remake of the original Vincent Price horror classic with Taye Diggs and Geoffrey Rush; and Drive Me Crazy.
A native of Cherry Hill, N.J., Larter began modeling at 13 and traveled the world before moving to New York. She currently lives in Los Angeles. Her birthday is February 28.
