CHARACTER BIO
Susan Mayer is a forty something divorcee living with her 14-year-old daughter, Julie. Her romantic heart always has her looking for her next great love. Writing and illustrating children's books has kept her around Wisteria Lane most days making it easy for her to keep an eye on neighborhood beau, Mike Delfino, her occasional boyfriend.
She and her wise-beyond-years daughter have a tell all relationship often resulting in a parental role reversal.
Susan's notoriously clumsy escapades have resulted in accidental arson, embarrassing public nudity and an unsightly encounter with a mechanical bull. Unfortunately her magnetic charm tends to attract trouble usually involving her secretive neighbor, Paul Young. She found herself knee-deep in a mystery surrounding her late friend Mary Alice Young's death involving a cryptic blackmail note, a dead woman's journal and a baby named Dana who may in fact be Mike's child.
ACTOR BIO
She’s hot! She’s intelligent! She used to be Lois Lane! (And did we mention she’s hot?) For five seasons, Teri Hatcher's wildly successful portrayal of comically-klutzy Susan Mayer in the ABC Comedy Desperate Housewives has kept us coming back week after week. After all, watching her trip and fall makes us feel better about our own spilled milk in life. Hatcher’s role of the single mom searching for love in the sometimes sordid, always intriguing world of Wisteria Lane has vaulted her to the pinnacle of today's hottest comic actresses.
Hatcher's international success has continued to grow since her days starring as the unforgettable Lois Lane in the 1994-97 series Lois & Clark. She also became a New York Times best-selling author with her 2006 book, Burnt Toast and other Philosophies of Life. In the critically acclaimed bestseller, she offers a personal, heartfelt and often very funny manifesto on life, love and the lessons we all need to learn—and unlearn—on the road to happiness.
Of all her film credits, Hatcher still considers the first film she ever made—The Big Picture, directed by Christopher Guest—to be her favorite. Other movies that followed were Soapdish, with Kevin Kline, Two Days in the Valley, Spy Kids, directed by Roberto Rodriguez, and as "Bond" girl Paris Carver in Tomorrow Never Dies, opposite Pierce Brosnan. Nor will anyone ever forget the line she made famous in Seinfeld, which was, of course, "They're real -- and they're spectacular."
Hatcher is also well known for her involvement in worthy causes, helping to raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for charities such as The Starlight Starbright Foundation, the Make-A-Wish Foundation, the Aviva Center in Los Angeles, CARE Humanitarian Relief Organization and the Tuberous Sclerosis Alliance. She has also been a strong advocate of both AIDS Walk Los Angeles and AIDS Walk New York, and an active participant in the battle against breast cancer.
Among her pop culture honors, Hatcher has had the distinction of being the most downloaded image on the internet the year she posed wrapped in Superman's cape -- and nothing else!
