Biography
Deborah Lynn Tucker was born in Evanston, IL and grew up in the Chicago area. She competed nationally and internationally as a figure skater and was the 1985 World University Games Ladies' Bronze Medalist, before graduating from Boston University with a bachelor degree in Broadcasting and Film. Deciding to transfer her love of performing from ice to stage and screen, she studied at the Actor's Institute in London and Oxford School of Drama, followed by a performance at the Edinburgh Festival. Six months after arriving in Hollywood she landed a series regular role on sitcom "Living Dolls" followed by a recurring role on "Dallas", enjoying back-to-back employment between comedy and drama genres. After a few more years of working in Teen and early 20's roles, it was time to grow up off screen. She married Ron Markezich in 1996 and they relocated to Seattle to begin a family. They have four children born in less than 3 1/2 years, including twins. As the children were in school, the "acting bug" bit again and Deborah returned to work in a leading role on a corporate film series (2008-2013) as well as some short films in the area. She continues to work on films, traveling between the Pacific Northwest, Los Angeles, Vancouver B.C., Texas, and hopefully soon to the Southeastern U.S. market as her oldest heads to college across the country and she'd like to combine work with Mom visits!
