Valentina Melpignano is a name that is synonymous with beauty. She has been cast in quite a few famous films including The Mask, Crazy Heart, Pretty Woman, and The Secret. However, it was her appearance on the television series CSI, in which she was the first of a number of attractive but slightly smaller models to be used by the show’s doctors, that made her instantly recognizable. Melpignano’s long, thin figure stands out against her peers, as well as against other models who have appeared on previous versions of the series. Even though Melpignano has appeared on a number of films since the first season of the show, her association with the series has continued through the present day.
Born in Avola, Sicily, Valentina Melpignano is an Italian citizen whose native tongue is Italian. She is professionally known as Valentina Melpignano, a legal assistant working with the prestigious law firm of Rothko. In addition to this, she is also an accomplished actress, having appeared in a number of high profile films throughout the years.
As with many women her age, Melpignano has never managed to find a partner of the same stature since adolescence. Instead, her relationships are usually relegated to those with whom she is close emotionally, such as her sister and mother. From her own perspective, she states that she has always looked up to her older sister and mother, feeling like they provided her with a sense of youth and vitality. The fact that she is in a position to be able to maintain and grow both her professional and personal career is testament to the positive effects that being a professional woman has on one’s self-esteem.
