Jorja-An Fox was born in 1968 in New York City, to a Franco-Canadian family. Her family later moved to Florida, where Jorja attended high school. During this time, she began working under contract with a modeling agency in Melbourne Beach, Florida. Her modeling career was successful, and she had the opportunity to work with many famous European fashion houses.

However, Jorja's childhood was troubled by constant insecurities about her appearance. She struggled with her weight and had crooked teeth with a gap. When she realized that braces would not fix her insecurities, Jorja simply told herself, "Forget it!" Surprisingly, these insecurities did not hinder her beauty or her career.

After graduating from high school, Jorja decided to continue her education and enrolled at the Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute to study acting. She made her film debut in the drama "The Kill-Off" in 1989. In the same period, Jorja also appeared in several television shows, including "Law & Order" and "ABC Afterschool Specials."

Jorja gained widespread recognition for her role as Sara Sidle in the television series "C.S.I.: Crime Scene Investigation." She joined the show in 2000 and remained with it for a significant period. However, she left the series due to contract disputes over her salary.

She also starred in the science fiction action film "Velocity Trap" in 1997, portraying one of the main characters in a vast interplanetary empire.

In 2000, Jorja played the role of Leonard's deceased wife in the detective thriller "Memento." She also appeared in the documentary film "Your Mommy Kills Animals" in 2007.
