For Jow, the role brings her back into The CW fold after her regular role on last season's short-lived Star-Crossed and her fan favorite portrayal of Anna on The Vampire Diaries. Her credits include Unfabulous, The Troop and Big Time Rush. She's repped by Sweeney Entertainment and McKuin Frankel.
In DC's The Flash comics, Linda Park first appears in Issue No. 28 as Wally West's girlfriend and eventual wife. (Wally is the first Kid Flash and third Flash overall.) The character becomes the latest in a rapidly growing line of DC characters to appear on the freshman series. Jow joins Wentworth Miller's Captain Cold, Dominic Purcell's Heat Wave, Robbie Amell's Firestorm, Kelly Frye's Plastique, Clancy Brown's The General, Patrick Sabongui's Captain Sing and Robert Knepper's The Clock King, among others.
