| Sonia was born in Adelaide but moved to Sydney when she was two. She graduated from NIDA (National Institute Of Dramatic Arts) in 1985 and worked on five seasons of Police Rescue. Sonia has had four AFI nominations, (winning one for her work in Police Rescue) and won a silver Logie in 1994 for "Most Popular Actress on Australian Television." Taking the role of Meg in McLeod's Daughters was a big commitment. "I knew what I was in for" she said. "Police Rescue was so blokey, now I'm finding my feminine side." Sonia enjoys McLeod's Daughters because she likes being active and working outdoors. She loves the land, and the smell of pepper trees evokes happy childhood memories of holidays on her grandparents' property. "After playing a dark character like Hannah in The Potato Factory, she finds Meg life-affirming. "With Meg, the glass is always half-full. She makes the best of situations and has a natural joy of living." Sonia is similar to Meg in that she feels "happy personally" with a great family life and two boys. "Meg accepts life's complexities. Not everything is black and white, she knows there are shades of grey. Meg loves to have a laugh and so do I." |
