Born and raised in Brooklyn, N.Y., Milano got her start with the national touring
company of Annie. At 10, she was cast as Samantha Micelli in the long-running comedy
Who's the Boss? starring opposite Tony Danza for eight years. The show ended in 1992,
and she continued to hone her talents on both the big and small screens. Milano's next
starring role was on the hit drama Melrose Place for two seasons. Milano starred in the
title role in the feature comedy Hugo Pool. Directed by Robert Downey, Sr. and co-starring
Sean Penn, Malcolm McDowell and Richard Lewis, the film chronicled a day in the life of a
Bel-Air pool cleaner (Milano). Her additional feature credits include the psychological
thriller Fear with Reese Witherspoon and Mark Wahlberg, Double Dragon, Where the Day Takes
You and Commando. She has starred in a wide range of television movies including Braving
Alaska, The Surrogate, Conflict of Interest, Candles in the Dark and in
Gold Rush, an original television movie on The Wonderful World of Disney. She also
guest-starred in an episode of Showtime's Rebel Highway. On stage,
Alyssa starred in Tender Offer, a one-act play written by Wendy Wasserstein; All Night
Long; and the first American musical adaptation of Jane Eyre. She returned to her theater
roots in 1991 when she starred in and produced a Los Angeles production of Butterflies Are
Free. Milano has taken groundbreaking action to protect her rights and the rights of
celebrities on the World Wide Web. She has won several copyright infringement suits,
and has dedicated the settlement money to the launch of a new search index on the web,
safesearching.com, a global community bringing a safe way to get
