Upon graduating from UCLA, Holden was accepted as part of the National Honor Society and received the Natalie Wood Award for Best Actress.

She has worked steadily in original films for HBO and Showtime and co-starred with Vanessa Redgrave in the TNT miniseries "Young Catherine."

Her memorable feature film roles include such hits as "Fantastic Four" (where she played Michael Chiklis's love interest) and the cult hero Cybil Bennet in Christophe Gans' artistic-horror video game adaptation of "Silent Hill." She gained notoriety playing the role of Marita Covarrubias, the U.N. informant to Fox Mulder, on the long-running hit "The X Files" and for her portrayal of Agent Olivia Murray in FX's critically acclaimed show "The Shield."

Named as one of the top 100 Most Creative People in Hollywood in Entertainment Weekly's It List and One of Ten Actors to Watch by Variety, Holden is actively producing film, theater and television projects in addition to her acting pursuits.
