# Tanja Reichert

Tanja Reichert (born September 19, 1980) is a retired Canadian actress.

## Career

She started acting when she was 15 years of age, and she first appeared on TV at 17 years old, when she had the role of "Shelley-Girl #2" in Breaker High for two episodes ("That Lip-Synching Feeling" and "Rooming Violations"); and she has appeared in many more films/programmes since then.
But she is probably most well known for her role in Relic Hunter, when she was Sydney Fox's assistant, Karen Petrusky, for the third and final season.

Reichert's other notable television series credits include guest starring roles on Poltergeist: The Legacy, Beyond Belief: Fact or Fiction, The Immortal (starring Lorenzo Lamas), and Francis Ford Coppola's sci-fi series First Wave. Most recently, she had roles on the popular CBS’s series CSI: Miami, as well as The Chris Isaak Show.
In late 2006 / early 2007 she appeared in MyNetworkTV telenovela Wicked Wicked Games, playing the secretary Jennifer Harrison.
