Alexis Gabbriel Dziena (born July 8, 1984) [1] is an American actress.
Dziena was born in New York City, [2] and is of Irish, Italian and Polish descent. She attended Saint Ann's School in Brooklyn and studied at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts. [1]
Dziena made her acting debut in TNT's Witchblade (2002). Guest roles followed in other series, such as Law & Order , Law & Order: Special Victims Unit , and Joan of Arcadia . One of her first major roles was in the Lifetime channel original film She's Too Young (2004), in which she portrayed a sexually active teenager. In the ABC television series Invasion , she played the sheriff's daughter, Kira Underlay. Dziena also appeared frequently on the sixth season of the HBO series Entourage (2009).
Dziena had a small role in the movie Broken Flowers (2005), starring Bill Murray, in which she played Lolita, the daughter of a character played by Sharon Stone. She played Heather, a sexually frustrated young woman who takes part in a couple-swap to save her relationship as part of an experimental therapy in the film Sex and Breakfast (2007). She also co-starred in the films Fool's Gold (2008) and Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist (2008).
In 2022, Without Ward was released; Dziena shot her scenes for the film in 2012. [3]
Dziena dated Michael Pitt in the early 2000s. [4] [5] [6]
In September 2011, Dziena attempted to get a restraining order against her parents, claiming that she was living in fear of them resorting to "murder or violence" to access her money. Her request was declined by a judge later that month as she had insufficient evidence to support her allegations. [7]
In June 2014, Dziena's ex-boyfriend Jeffrey Francis Ausley was granted a restraining order against Dziena after she showed up at his house with a bag of clothes and announced that she was moving in. Ausley also alleged that she threatened to harm both of them if he ended their relationship. [8]
