Faith Coley Salie (born 14 April 1971; age 54) is the actress who played Sarina Douglas in the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine sixth and seventh season episodes "Statistical Probabilities" and "Chrysalis". According to the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Companion, p. 614, Salie had to audition again to play Sarina in "Chrysalis", due to her greatly expanded role in the episode. In 2012, Salie commented that "the most iconic show I've ever been on was Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. I still get fan mail. I'm on a trading card. My character lives on in a DS9 novel". [1]
Salie graduated Magna Cum Laude from Harvard, and received a master's degree from Oxford.
She has appeared in guest roles on Unhappily Ever After (with Nikki Cox), Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Charmed, Sex and the City (starring Kim Cattrall) and Manny Coto's Odyssey 5 (starring Peter Weller). She is also recognized as the star of Significant Others and as a panelist and contributor for several VH1 "pop culture"-related shows such as I Love The '90s and Best Week Ever. She is also a frequent guest panelist on Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me! and a frequent contributor on CBS Sunday Morning.
She hosted the radio show Fair Game on Public Radio International, which was cancelled in 2008. She has also written articles for Esquire and O, the Oprah Magazine, as well as a book of humorous essays Approval Junkie, which she has adapted for the theater as a one-woman show. She was briefly in a relationship with Deep Space Nine costar Tim Ransom.
