Pretty and talented Mira Sorvino was born in Tenafly, an affluent northern New Jersey suburb.  The young Sorvino was intelligent, an avid reader and an exceptional scholar.  She attended Harvard, majoring in Chinese, graduating magna cum laude in 1989, largely on the strength of her thesis, a Hoopes Prize-winning thesis on racial conflict in China, written and researched during the year spent in Beijing, which helped her fluency in Mandarin Chinese.  She has had a variety of roles, appearing in:  “Mimic”, “The Replacement Killers”, “Final Cut”, and the recent TV mini-series, “The Last Templar.”  I hope we someday get to see the lovely Mira in a huge, big screen genre film.
