Diane Neal is back for her second season of Wolf Films/NBC Universal Television’s top rated drama Law & Order: Special Victims Unit in the role of "Assistant District Attorney Casey Novak."
Born in Alexandria, Virginia, Neal moved to Colorado as a child when her father, a federal attorney, transferred to Denver. Needless to say, her dad is very pleased with his youngest child’s success portraying an A.D.A.
Prior to joining the cast of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Neal attended the prestigious Atlantic Theater Company Acting School in Manhattan. Demonstrating her great range she soon was on the top of every casting director’s list. The young actress has done everything from comedy to action and drama in both television and film. Audiences and producers started noticing Neal for her roles as a rock & roll star on Ed, a smart-ass nemesis on The American Embassy, an outlandish fiancée on the Dennis Leary comedy pilot Adam and Lenny, and most recently as the conflicted cop of tomorrow in Joel Silver’s pilot Future Tense.
Her film credits include the starring role in Dimension films Dracula: Legacy and its sequel Dracula: Ascension with Jason Scott Lee. Currently, her film Second Born, directed by Jevon Roush is making the indie festival tour.
Neal has been fortunate enough to live and work in numerous countries around the world, from Taiwan to Egypt. Traveling, foreign languages and ancient history are some of her favorite pastimes. Having grown up in Colorado, she also adores skiing, hiking and camping. She is also devoted to working with charitable organizations that help promote better living standards and health care for children and their families around the world.
Currently, Neal resides in New York and is engaged to Marcus FitzGerald, with plans to be married in 2005. With close connections to the fashion industry they can frequently be seen at many of the city’s top social and charitable events.
