Biography
Born in Alexandria, Louisiana, Faith was raised in nearby
Pineville. In high school, Faith acted in school plays and, in her
senior year, was a finalist in Teen Magazine's annual model search.
At 17, she was in New York where she worked in commercials and did
some modeling. Soon Faith had recurring roles in soap operas such
as 'Muffy' in "One Life to Live". In 1984, Faith made the move to
Hollywood. Faith found prime time work as Janine, the fumbling
secretary, on "Thirtysomething" as well as guest spots on other
shows. Her big screen debut was in the seldom seen 'You Talkin' to
Me? (1987)'. In 1988, after first turning down the role, she joined
the cast of the Television series "Murphy Brown (1988)" as Corky,
the blond. Over the years, Faith has received 5 Emmy nominations
for her character and has seen Corky mature from the beauty queen
ditz to the lightweight fluff reporter. After nine seasons on
"Murphy Brown", Faith has tried to distance herself from Corky with
the thriller 'Night Visitors (1996) (TV)' and 'Her Desperate Choice
(1996) (TV)'.
