According to TVGuide.com, Daniel Sunjata is set for a recurring role on ABC's "Grey's Anatomy." The stage and screen star can be seen on the show beginning in December, and will play a nurse love interest for Dr. Bailey.

Sunjata played the role of a sailor on shore leave on the first post-9/11 themed episode of Sex and The City. He has portrayed Langston Hughes in the film Brother to Brother and James Holt, a fictitious fashion designer in The Devil Wears Prada. He currently stars as firefighter Franco Rivera on the television program Rescue Me. During the summer of 2007, he also starred in the ESPN miniseries The Bronx is Burning as Reggie Jackson.

In 2003, he won a Theatre World Award for his breakout Broadway performance as a gay, Major League Baseball player who comes out to the public in Take Me Out, the Tony award-winning play, which also earned him nominations for a Tony Award and Drama Desk Award.

"Grey's Anatomy" airs Thursdays at 9 PM ET on ABC.
