Nice Boy of the Week: Kristoffer Polaha
[caption id="" align="alignleft" width="195" caption="Kristoffer Polaha"][/caption] This week's Nice Boy is not really a new face in TV Land, but with his role as Nate "Baze" Bazile on the CW's Life Unexpected, he's certainly becoming the most memorable.

He graduated from NYU's "Tisch School Of Arts" earning a bachelor of arts in 99.

Fortunately, she took a break to focus on school and did not return to regular acting work until she was 14, when David Lynch gave her a small role in the cult TV series Twin Peaks ...
