Popular actress-musician Janina Gavankar (True Blood, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of herself hidden from view. At 45th birthday, she remains a woman of many facets.
Gavankar, a cultural icon
Born Janina Zione Gavankar in Joliet on November 29, 1980, her career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Gavankar's not just a great actress, she's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business woman. At this point in her career, there seems to be little Janina hasn't done.
