Caitlin FitzGerald’s “rite of passage” into the acting world was like many other actors’ — an episode of "SVU". In her first television appearance, she played twins, one of whom gets involved in the illegal animal-smuggling business and ultimately is mauled by a big cat.

“I had this insane tiger mauling prosthetic on my neck so I was like ‘I’ve arrived. Here I am. I’m a real actor now.’”
