Dove Cameron as Ciara Wyse

Date of Birth: January 15, 1996

Date of Birth: January 15, 1976

Actor: Dorian Crossmond Missick was born in East Orange, New Jersey. Missick has been acting on the big and small screen since 1990, though he has found some of his greatest success in TV roles, often playing the role of law enforcement officers and detectives.
