Yvonne Strahovski (born 30 July 1982) is an Australian actress. She appeared in some roles in Australian film and television and currently appears as Sarah Walker in the American television series Chuck. She voices the character Miranda in the Mass Effect video game series.
Born in Maroubra, a suburb of Sydney, as Yvonne Strzechowski, she adopted the more phonetic spelling of Yvonne Strahovski as her stage name at Chuck producer Josh Schwartz's behest for the sake of easier pronunciation.
Yvonne spent her high school years attending Santa Sabina College, Strathfield. She is a graduate of University of Western Sydney's Theatre Nepean with a Bachelor of Arts in Performance.
Strahovski speaks fluent Polish and employed it in a brief exchange in the Chuck episode "Chuck Versus the Wookiee". Although she portrays an American in the series, she briefly spoke in her real Australian accent in the episode "Chuck Versus The Ex".
Strahovski dated fellow Australian actor Matt Doran from 2006-2007. In 2009, Strahovski was rated #94 on Maxim's 2009 Hot 100 Women of the World.
