Lexa Doig is a Canadian actress. Her parents held season tickets to their local theatre, and Lexa was inspired to begin acting after seeing a production of "Porgy and Bess" at the age of nine.

She has also completed guest stints on several popular television shows, including "Traders" (1996), "Earth: Final Conflict" (1997), "The Chris Isaak Show" (2001), along with a recurring role in Seasons 9 and 10 of Stargate SG-1 (where she co-stared with her husband Michael Shanks who she met on Star-Crossed).

Quotes
Edit
"I walked out an the audition absolutely convinced I had blown it, and then my agent called to tell me I got the part. I was leaping around my parents' house and screaming at the top of my lungs. I knew then I'd chosen the right profession and I've never looked back since"
