Mini-bio: Potter was born in Cleveland, Ohio to an Irish American Catholic family; her father was an inventor and her mother worked as a secretary. During her childhood, she was a part of the St. Jerome Parish ...( read more )in Cleveland, and attended the local elementary school, as well as Villa Angela Catholic School for Girls, before graduating from Euclid High School. Potter says that she had wanted to be an actress since her childhood. She almost became a nun, but for the fact that she was married and pregnant at the age of nineteen.

At the age of twelve, Potter started modeling and appearing in commercials in Chicago and Miami, before deciding to pursue an acting career. Her first role was on the daytime soap opera, The Young and the Restless. She has since appeared in several feature films, including Con Air (playing the wife of Nicolas Cage's character) and starring opposite Robin Williams in Patch Adams. In 2001, she had two major roles, co-starring with Freddie Prinze Jr. in Head Over Heels, and with Morgan Freeman in the thriller Along Came a Spider. She was a series regular on Boston Legal but left after the first season. Adam Duritz of Counting Crows wrote the song Mrs. Potter's Lullaby about her after seeing her in a film. This lead to a relationship between the two.

  Hey Monica, forget the rest youre the best and I do mean that from the bottom of my heart. Everyday, i dream to have someone like you in my life but im still searching cause i havent found her yet. I wish and pray i could you meet but you probably have a bf and dont have time to do things with your busy schedule and all. Have fun always smile cause i love it and be good to yourself. You never know if we laid eyes on each other. Richiepooh
