Supriya Ganesh

If you consider yourself an armchair ER doctor, you’re likely a fan of Dr. Mohan from The Pitt. And yes, Supriya Ganesh, the actor behind the beloved character, is just as likable in real life. The Indian American actor first broke into acting in New Delhi, where she grew up, and later moved to the United States to pursue her love of performing further. She says, “Getting to inhabit other people and characters that are vastly different from me is such a gift. It’s so lovely to constantly learn and be curious about the world and the people around me.” Even though Dr. Mohan has been her breakout role, Ganesh is no stranger to television. She has made appearances on Billions, NBC’s New Amsterdam, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, and Chicago Med. When she’s not busy gracing our screens at home, she’s often jetsetting to new destinations. “Traveling is very important to my psyche! I try to take at least one trip a year, preferably internationally and in a country where I don’t know anyone or speak the language.” Amid her demanding schedule on set and her adventures abroad, Ganesh also finds time to relax at home in Los Angeles with her cat, Rosie. –ER
