Rachel Nichols as Trilby A small town New England native, Nichols first caught the attention of a modeling scout while attending Columbia University in New York City, from which she graduated with a double major in math and economics. After campaigns with such brands as Guess, L'Oreal, Abercrombie & Fitch, and Nicole Miller, she broke into the world of acting on the series "Sex and the City." She followed that with a role in "Autumn in New York" with Richard Gere and then in 2003 she starred in "Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd." Nichols will be seen early next year in MGM's "The Woods" opposite Patricia Clarkson and Agnes Bruckner. Nichols recently completed the remake of the horror classic "The Amityville Horror" produced by Michael Bay, in which she portrays the unforgettable role of the family babysitter. As the star of the highly anticipated Fox one-hour drama, "The Inside," Rachel Nichols will portray an undercover detective that is sent in to high schools and colleges across the country to investigate suspected drug rings and finds herself getting attached to and involved with the students she is investigating.
