In both of her "NCIS: Hawai'i" appearances to date, Dalia Reed is portrayed by actor Lauren Cook (via IMDb). Cook's earliest credit is as a writer and principal cast member of "Floaters," a webseries about a group of women in their twenties sharing a living space and a workplace. A couple of years later, Cook collaborated with "Floaters" showrunner Mike Stickle again on a show called "Chaos Theory," once again serving a multifaceted as creator, writer, and lead actor.

Outside of the series she helmed and a few film appearances, Cook's filmography is largely comprised of one-off appearances in major TV shows. The list of series with an episode featuring Cook includes "The Mindy Project," "Fresh Off the Boat," and the recent Jabari Banks-led "Bel-Air," among others.

In 2017, Cook also appeared on an episode of interview podcast "WTF with Marc Maron" alongside her husband Kurt Braunohler to discuss their podcast about marriage, "Wedlock." Years later, in 2021, news dropped that Cook and Braunohler are collaborating on a workplace comedy for NBC that takes place in a birthing center titled "Pushing" (via Deadline).

Fans of Dalia Reed on "NCIS: Hawai'i," then, can watch old episodes of shows like "Floaters" and "Chaos Theory," or tune into the eventual premiere of "Pushing," for more from Lauren Cook.
