Elisabeth Moss
Elisabeth Moss was born October 15, 1983 and had been studying ballet since the age of five. Starting in Los Angeles, Moss continued her training at the School of American Ballet in New York before studying with Susan Farrell at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. Moss is probably best known for her six year stint as the president’s daughter on NBC’s award-winning, The West Wing. She has also appeared in movies such as Ron Howard’s The Missing, alongside Tommy Lee Jones and Cate Blanchett, as well as Girl, Interrupted with Angelina Jolie and Winona Ryder. Moss made her New York stage debut in 2002, as the title character in Richard Nelson’s Franny’s Way. Soon after, she received critical acclaim and a nomination for Best Actress in the 2004 Independent Spirit Award, for her lead role in the independent film, Virgin.
Peggy, played by Elisabeth Moss on Mad Men, is Don Draper’s new secretary at Sterling Cooper ad agency. A product of Miss Deaver’s Secretarial School, she is willing to do whatever it takes to be as efficient and successful as her pedigree mentor, Joan.
