Career

After Procter moved to Los Angeles, her father paid for her to attend acting school for two years. Before even graduating, she had already landed a number of small film roles, including Cameron Crowe's sports romantic comedy-drama Jerry Maguire (1996), and as a co-star with David Schwimmer and Chris Cooper in the TV movie Breast Men (1997). In 1996, Procter guest-starred as Lana Lang in the ABC superhero drama Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman. She briefly appeared in the TV movie The Dukes of Hazzard: Reunion! (1997) as Mavis and the drama Body Shots (1999) as Whitney Bryant.

Calleigh Duquesne is the day shiftassistant supervisor at the Miami-Dade Crime Lab. She is the adoptive mother of Austin and Patty North. She is also the best friend of Eric Delko.

Physical Appearance[]

Calleigh has long blonde hair and bright green eyes. She is also noted to be the shortest of the Day Shift CSIs (according to IMDb, Emily Procter is 5' 2", or 1.57 m tall, although Calleigh's police ID card states she is 5' 4").

Personality[]

Calleigh is a prime example of "southern hospitality", an almost eternal optimist, with a sunny disposition and a smile to match.

However, this attitude does not in any way interfere with her quest to put criminals where they belong. She is pretty much universally liked by her co-workers like Tim Speedle who sometimes remark on her being nearly "too happy".

And while she does not believe in supernatural curses and the like, she does believe in karma ("Curse of the Coffin"). Because of her cheery attitude and southern-belle charm many suspects have expected her to be dim to what goes on around her, but in truth she is aware of when a suspect is flirting with her or trying to trick her and she will immediately point out what they're trying to do.

Even though her time as a CSI has exposed her to intense violence and gore, she is unfazed by much of it. However, she revealed that she has an intense fear of ants, which Eric Delko helped her overcome ("Wannabe").

Abilities[]

Calleigh is a ballistics specialist; originally from Darnell, Louisiana, United States of America. She is fluent in Spanish and has a bachelor's degree in physics from Tulane University. While working for the New Orleans Police Department, she gained the nickname "Bullet Girl", a legendary nickname that is well known in the Miami-Dade Crime Lab and other Miami-based LEAs. She also has a deep knowledge of different types of firearms, including the Dx4 "Vaporizer", and Cornershot.

Biografía

Calleigh nació en el estado de Luisiana, en una zona rural. Creció con un padre alcohólico, Kenwall "Duke" Duquesne (abogado defensor, a veces Calleigh le da consejos para sus casos), lo que la obligó a comportarse como una adulta desde pequeña. Calleigh se ocupaba de cuidar a su madre enferma y de arreglar los desaguisados de Kenwall. Sus padres se divorciaron en torno a 1992, y la separación fue amarga y hostil (episodio número 521, "Simplemente asesinado"). Después de graduarse, logró entrar en el Departamento de Policía de Nueva Orleans. Su conocimiento de las armas era tan sorprendente que se ganó la reputación de "chica bala". Ese talento llegó a oídos de Horatio Caine, en Miami, que necesitaba un experto en balística y la contrató.

Calleigh reúne unas potentes combinación de talento y belleza. Aunque a veces utiliza su encanto para derribar barreras, siempre emplea la calma y la racionalidad para llegar a la clave de los crímenes. Ha aprendido a confiar en sus compañeros aunque la confianza no es uno de los fuertes de su vida personal. Su corazón no es un lugar accesible (perdió a un exnovio por
