So I decided to do something bit different for a week or so.  I want to introduce each character and the person who plays that character.  We are starting with Eva Longoria. She is the beauty queen who plays Gabrielle Solis on Desperate Housewives.  She was born March 15, 1975 in Corpus Christi, Texas.  Her parents were Mexican-American.  She has won numerous Golden Globe Awards, Screen Actors Guild Awards as her incredible performance as Mrs. Solis.
