Early life
Delfino was born on February 20, 1981 in Caracas, Venezuela. Her father is Italian Venezuelan and her mother is Cuban.[1] As a child, she lived in Caracas and Miami, Florida, until moving to Los Angeles as a teenager.[2]
Career
Acting
Delfino was cast in MGM's "Zeus & Roxanne" before landing the role of Tina Dimeo in NBC's The Tony Danza Show, where she played Tony Danza's teenage daughter. After playing Natalie Sanford in the independent film The Secret Life of Girls, Delfino was cast as Maria DeLuca on Roswell. On hiatus, she performed in the small role of Vanessa in Traffic. She also acted in Reeseville, Celeste in the City, and in R.S.V.P. She played Trudi in the film State's Evidence.
Delfino starred in a number of episodes of the NBC show Quarterlife, also shown on MySpaceTV, which started airing November 11, 2007. In 2011, she starred with Raven-Symoné in the show State of Georgia on ABC Family until its cancellation.
Delfino performed in ABC's pilot The Family Trap starring Mandy Moore and Stockard Channing. Delfino was eight months pregnant with her first child during shooting, so director Shawn Levy shot around the pregnancy for the entire project. One month after giving birth, Delfino was cast as Dwight Schrute's sister on NBC's The Office attempted spin-off/backdoor pilot, "The Farm". NBC did not greenlight the series.
Delfino starred in CBS's Friends with Better Lives, where writers included her pregnancy in the story line.[citation needed]
Music
Delfino sang in several Roswell episodes, such as "Viva Las Vegas", "Cry Your Name", and "Behind the Music". In the summer of 2000, Delfino released three songs onto the internet, "Siren", "Bruises" and "Tattoo", and wrote and produced them in association with "Sci-Fi Lullaby". On October 31, 2001, Delfino released the EP The Sicks on her own label, Dripfeed, without radio or television airplay.
Her second album, Tarte, was released on April 23, 2007, by her own record company, Red Velvet Cake Records. In February 2011, the singer announced via Twitter that she was working on her third studio album, scheduled for a late 2018 release.[3]
Personal life
On March 18, 2011, Delfino married actor David Walton in Miami.[4] They have two children, a daughter born in 2012, and a son born in 2013.[5][6]
