"Smart, eccentric, intuitive, and lovable," was the description given by actor Ken Howard regarding his character Max Cavanaugh on the crime-drama series Crossing Jordan. As a seasoned police officer, he was forced into early retirement after he took the law into his own hands. Even with his reputation as a disgraced cop, he frequently served as a helping hand to daughter Dr. Jordan Cavanaugh (Jill Hennessy) in exploring murder investigations.

As Detective Woody Hoyt on the NBC crime-drama series Crossing Jordan, Jerry O’Connell was popularly known as the “police muscle” for the medical examiner’s office. While he usually worked with Dr. Jordan Cavanaugh (Jill Hennessy) in solving crimes, he was known to harbor feelings for her but was often hindered by her preference to remain friends. Fortunately, their suppressed relationship blossomed when Jordan professed her love for Woody during the series finale.

Exotically beautiful, Jill Hennessy has established herself not only as a dramatic actress but as a brilliant musician and a successful restaurateur as well. With talent to spare, she is the antithesis of the serious characters she is known to portray on television series. Voted as one of the "Fun and Fearless Females" by Cosmopolitan Magazine, she certainly gives spark to the show Crossing Jordan as she leads the television series.
