Annie Wersching injected fresh life into the final two seasons of the espionage drama "24" as FBI Special Agent Renee Walker, serving as a foil, ally, and eventual romantic interest for rule-breaking CTU agent Jack Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland). "24"'s creators cast Wersching based on her work as a potential series regular in "Company Man," a passed-over 2007 pilot that they had also produced. Before landing the "24" gig, the St. Louis native played small roles in the sci-fi spin-off "Star Trek: Enterprise," the fantasy series "Charmed," and the David E. Kelley drama "Boston Legal." The 2002 "Enterprise" episode was her first television role, and apparently made an impression among "Star Trek" fans, who, she says, "[still] send me trading cards of my character. I'm like, I was in one episode! How could I possibly have a trading card?" She also appeared for five months in 2007 on hallowed CBS soap opera "General Hospital" as revenge-seeking TV producer Amelia Joffe. Wersching married actor and comedian Stephen Full in 2009. Annie Wersching died of cancer on January 29, 2023 at the age of 45.
