Biography
Moon Bloodgood played Anne Glass, the pragmatic pediatrician and moral anchor, for five seasons on the alien invasion drama 'Falling Skies.' Before that, she appeared as a compassionate fighter pilot in 'Terminator Salvation.' Born in 1975 to a Korean mother and an Irish-Dutch father, Bloodgood began on the runways of New York and Tokyo. She moved to Los Angeles to pursue acting. Her roles consistently explore resilience: a Norse goddess in 'The Last Witch Hunter,' a police officer in 'The Night Shift.' She built a career defined by steady presence and layered performances in high-concept worlds, becoming a familiar face to genre fans.
Generation X
1965–1980
The latchkey kids. Raised during divorce, recession, and the end of the Cold War. Skeptical, self-reliant, media-literate. They invented indie culture, grunge, and the early internet — then watched the Boomers take credit.
Moon was born in 1975, placing them squarely in the Generation X. The events that shaped this generation — economic uncertainty, the end of the Cold War, and the rise of personal computing — shaped the world they entered and the choices available to them.
