WHAT OTHERS SAY... From a former slave turned fighter supporting Spartacus during his uprising, to the daughter of the notorious leader of The League of Assassins, Katrina Law has brought to life some of the strongest and complex female characters on screen today. Throughout 2016 Katrina will reprise her role as ‘Nyssa Al Ghul’ on season four of the CW’s hit action-adventure series “Arrow.” Introduced in season two, Katrina’s character instantly became a fan favorite.

WHAT I SAY... Pretty bad at cooking, though I do try. Some were witness on my year long battle and struggle to learn how to properly cook and peel a hard boiled egg on Twitter. I am proud to say that I have perfected the fine art of boiling and peeling eggs and there is documented proof. It's the little victories I say.
