Sierra Edwards, known by friends, family, and much of Hollywood as Sarah, graduated pre-university from Metropolitan Arts Institute, where she excelled in performance arts. Sierra has since worked with The Groundling's and Jennifer Coolidge; show-runners Chuck Lorre and Bill Prady as an actress on "The Big Bang Theory"; Shana Goldberg-Meehan and Scott Silveri on "Joey"; and with excitingly more "Friends" writers, Ted Cohen and Andrew Reich for the CBS pilot, "If You Lived Here...".
Sierra was delighted to work with Jeff Goldblum, James Franco, Jim Parrack, Scott Cann, Jordana Brewster, Marshall Allman, Jamie Anne Allman, Robyn Cohen, Davey Franco, Robert Carnegie, Tracy Pellegrino, and Mark Pellegrino--the golden years!--at Playhouse West Repertory Theater Company.
Sierra was a proud member of The Actor's Gang, located in Culver City and artistically directed by Tim Robbins. She fell in love with "The Gang" when she saw Brian Kimmet in Tim Robbin's adaptation of 1984. Sierra's civilly-minded spirit admired the vital work the company did with their "Prison Project" championed by Tim and also hugely driven by Sabra Williams.
When Sierra is not acting, she can be found surrounded by books, making monkey faces, and alternating between cooking super-clean Mediterranean food and fat-laden southern comfort. She likes to think she's 50% Southern Belle, 50% Rock N' Roll.
Sierra went to Santa Monica College and received her Associates in Government and the History of Media before transferring to the University of Southern California to work with/under as the dean of Cinema Writing, Jack Epps Jr., T.V. writing queens, Pam Douglas and Georgia Jeffries, and the illustrious, Aaron Rashaan Thomas.
One of the coolest things about Sierra is that her father, Mark Edwards, grew up with George Lucas, being cousins, living in Modesto, CA. Sierra is alllll about the middle Star Wars as those were the ones she got to go to the premier of while she was still a minor, which, is still some of the hi-lights of her life. That and getting to meet George at USC. She is truly thankful for all who give to the study and pursuit of Film, T.V., Literature, and Liberal Arts. Sierra would not be where she is without those generous individuals.
In creative writing, Sierra (as Sarah Edwards) was selected twice for T.C. Boyle's Advanced Fiction Workshop, was selected for a university-wide juried prize by Percival Everett, worked with and under the phenomenal Dana Johnson, and was honored to be able to complete her thesis cannon of short stories under the direction of Aimee Bender.
Since graduating, Sarah has had several IP's optioned, including the hard-R comedy SCREWED about two people who eff so hard they switch bodies and DISSENT, about Sierra's idea of singularity in a totalitarian world-wide government. She was super-excited and proud to work on SAUDI GIRL REVOLUTION ((SGR) though, they were women...). As the only female writer, is was incredible to hear she was the strongest on writing action scenes. Take that, "boy's club"! SGR was about Saudi Arabian Female Freedom Fighters. The episodes she was assigned to write are some of her proudest accomplishments.
Sierra was commissioned to write a short and later, feature-treatment for QUETZALCOATL about Mayan revolution against Spanish imperialists. She liked to think of it as BRAVE HEART meets PAN'S LABYRINTH (at the very, very best). She wrote a web series called, HOT MESS, about a female, Indian American immigrant just trying to survive--and doing so with, at times, grace and very bad choices.
As a Quaker, Sierra also wrote the web series, CALLED TO SPEAK about a Quaker Youth Minister, going through a divorce and finding herself in the extended form of others. She wrote a short, The Lord is With Thee, about a woman who has a BDSM relationship with her priest and Mother Lovers, about motherhood in all its incarnations.
Sierra, as Sarah Edwards, as of 2020, is shopping MOMSTERS about a young couple on the precipice of engagement dealing with the hilarious ensnarements and complications of all the mothers, "bonus" mothers, and grandmothers in their lives.
2020 is the best of times and the worst of times, also being out with, FUCKING MY WAY TO FABULOUS, another hard-R comedy that is raunchy with a heart of gold.
Sierra is happy to be bi-city splitting time between Los Angeles and Arizona, where she was born and raised."Summer"

Sara Gilbert was born on January 29, 1975, as Sara Rebecca Abeles at St. John's Hospital and Health Center in Santa Monica, California, to Barbara Cowan and Harold Abeles. Barbara was previously married to the late Paul Gilbert. At the age of six, when Sara saw her sister Melissa Gilbert get a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, she told her mother that she wanted to be an actress, too. A string of commercials and, in 1984, an appearance in the CBS TV movie Calamity Jane (1984), led her to adopt the Gilbert family name. After failing to get the new The Facts of Life (1979) show, she eventually found success with Roseanne (1988). Sara spent a total of nine years on that show and was given time to be able to study at Yale University, graduating with honors in 1997.

John Mark Galecki was born in Bree, Belgium, to American parents; his father was stationed there while serving in the U.S. Air Force. When he was three years old, his family moved to Chicago, Illinois, where he grew up with his parents, Mary Lou and Richard Galecki, and siblings, sister Allison (1980) and brother Nick (1982). His father was of Polish descent, and his mother's ancestry is Irish and Italian. His mother was a mortgage consultant and his father became a teacher for blind veterans in a VA hospital outside of Chicago. When Galecki was sixteen, his father died in an accident.
His mother recalled in an interview with People magazine that Galecki was a very artistic kid; at only 4 years old, he told her: "Mom, I'm gonna be on T.V., and I don't mean when I grow up." Two years later, when their attempts to distract him with sports failed, Galecki's parents took him to open auditions at local theaters in Chicago. He landed his first role in "Fiddler on the Roof," and more parts in other productions followed. By age 11, he was already known as an excellent actor in Chicago's theater scene evidenced by him receiving a Joseph Jefferson Citation nomination for portraying John Henry in "The Member of the Wedding."
In 1989 he was cast in his first movie, a holiday film called Prancer (1989), but his big break was in another Christmas movie as Chevy Chase's son Rusty Griswold, in National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation (1989). On the set, Chase took a liking to him, and Galecki recalled in a later interview that Chevy Chase showed him some tricks for comedic timing.
By that time, his whole family had moved from Chicago to L.A. to support his career. But within 10 months they realized they missed Chicago too much, and moved back home. Galecki, still just 14, was under contract on a show with Robert Urich called "American Dreamer (1990)", so he stayed in L.A. Although he was living alone in a studio apartment, he never got into trouble and was a good kid. He recalled living alone in L.A. without adult supervision as "not fun" and "quite intimidating and lonely, to be honest. But I've always been happiest when I'm working, so..." He bought a motorcycle with a mirrored helmet so he could get to work and back, at Paramount studios.
In 1991 Galecki was picked by Roseanne Barr to play her son in the made for T.V. movie Backfield in Motion (1991). She liked him so much she asked him to come on her sitcom for what started as a one-off appearance, but soon turned into the important recurring role of David Healy. His family was religious viewers of the show and he was somewhat intimidated at first to be working with his television heroes. However, before long, it was his heroes that praised him: Roseanne said he showed "great vulnerability." John Goodman said: "If he was one of those little stuffed bears at a carny, he'd have a Wuv me t-shirt on. People just want to take care of him." Galecki also became very close friends with co-star Sara Gilbert and the show's executive producer Eric Gilliland.
After Roseanne (1988) he worked on a number of diverse roles, from funny Ira alongside Christopher Walken in the 1997 dark-comedy Suicide Kings (1997) to a drug-addicted student in 2003's Bookies (2003), and he played gay characters in Don Roos's Bounce (2000) and The Opposite of Sex (1998). He never stayed far from the television industry as he made guest appearances such as Laurie Freeman's younger lover in Norm (1999) (where he once again worked with Laurie Metcalf, his former Roseanne cast mate), as a golfer in My Name Is Earl (2005), as Hope & Faith (2003)'s younger brother in the sitcom of the same name, and as hilarious party-boy Trouty on My Boys (2006). In 2006 he returned to his theater roots as he took on the role of conflicted but sweet male escort Alex in Douglas Carter Beane's play "The Little Dog Laughed," for which he received a 2007 Theatre World Award for Outstanding Browdway Debut.
In 2007 he was back on the small screens, starring as Leonard Hofstadter in the sitcom The Big Bang Theory (2007). Not only was Chuck Lorre, a former producer for Roseanne, a producer of the new show, but Sara Gilbert and Laurie Metcalf both made guest appearances.
Galecki is a self-admitted motorcycle "nerd," and rides a Harley Davidson Softail Deluxe. Although he never went to college, he has said: "I'm not dead! We should never stop learning. We should never stop absorbing," and so he learned how to play the cello in his early twenties. He likes traveling around the world, painting, music (he also plays bass), and hiking with his dog Vera.
He always has been very private about his personal life and little is known about past relationships. It has only been confirmed that he dated actresses Laura Harris and Kaley Cuoco. He isn't on twitter, and Galecki once said, "I don't understand the current frame of mind in our society that seems to say that any action is not of value until it's broadcast somehow."
He still lives in Los Angeles but is often spotted in Chicago, where his siblings still live."Leonard Hofstadter"
