Ion Overman
Gabriela Garza on Port Charles

Joining the cast of "Port Charles" as nurse Gabriela Garza, Ion Overman quickly adjusted to the hospital atmosphere. Known for her sense of humor and easy-going charm, Gabriela has shocked Port Charles residents with a side to her that no one could have foreseen. An encounter with a devilish gentleman has left her wanting and destroying all things in her path, placing friends and family in jeopardy.

Born and raised in Los Angeles, Ms. Overman tested the waters of drama as a youth. At the age of thirteen she had already decided to take a break from her active role in the Chip Fields Repertory Theater. It was not until after graduating from the University of California, Los Angeles, with a BA in English literature, that she felt it was time to return to acting. She landed her first agent in 1993 and supported herself with odd jobs while studying regionally.

She has guest-starred in "Pensacola: Wings of Gold" and "Shasta McNasty," co-starred in "Norm," "For Your Love" and "Beverly Hills, 90210," and appeared in the telefilm "The Little Richard Story" and as a recurring character in the pilot "The Thing About Family."

She has also performed on stage in productions of "Hurlyburly," "The Children's Hour," "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" and "West Side Story."

Fluent in French and a cuisine connoisseur, Ms. Overman resides in Sherman Oaks. She loves animals, especially dogs, catching up on her classic and modern films and shopping with fellow castmate Julie Pinson.
