BIOGRAPHY:

Dominczyk is a daughter of Mirek Dominczyk, a leader in the Polish Solidarity movement. Dominczyk moved with her family from Kielce, Poland, to New York City when she was three, after her parents were expelled from their native Poland for her father's involvement with Amnesty International and then the Solidarity movement.
She is the younger sister of the actress Dagmara Dominczyk and is fluent in English and her native Polish.
Dominczyk became engaged to actor Scott Foley in 2006. During June 2007, the two wed in a private ceremony in Hawaii. In October 2009, it was announced that Dominczyk and Foley were expecting their first child together. They welcomed a daughter named Marley Addison.
In 2004, Dominczyk appeared in the short-lived television series The Help, which also starred Mindy Cohn and Antonio Sabàto, Jr.. The following year, she appeared as Bernadette in the 2005 movie The 40-Year-Old Virgin. From 2006-2007, she guest-starred on the ABC's Brothers & Sisters as Tyler Altamirano. She reprised her role in the last two episodes of the show's fifth season. Despite being Polish, her exotic looks have often led to her being cast in Hispanic roles, such as Anna in The Help and, most recently, as South American agent Isabelle in Get Smart's Bruce and Lloyd: Out of Control. She also appeared in Who Do You Love?, Las Vegas' "3 Babes, 100 Guns, and a Fat Chick" (2008), as a bounty hunter, and Danny's Marine Sergeant in Iraq, and a Russian informant to Cool Breeze, played by her husband, in The Unit, and is in National Lampoon's Bagboy.
Dominczyk also played the role of Lara in the film I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell.
