Her stunning beauty, likable character and impeccable acting talent are some of the qualities that make Azie Tesfai one of the most distinguished African celebrities in Hollywood. Although she was born and raised in Los Angeles, her parents hail from Ethiopia and Eritrea. She has played popular roles in numerous network and cable TV series, including “Melrose Place,” “Royal Pains,” a regular role on the CW’s hit comedy “Jane the Virgin” and a new character during the current season of HBO’s “Silicon Valley.”
