But, James’ performance helped make Emma’s transformation into an independent and strong young woman believable as she volunteered her time to nurse soldiers back to health on both sides of the war.
Emma began as an entitled and privileged young woman who had seen little trouble in her life as the daughter of one of the richest families in Alexandria, Virginia.
Her best known role so far would be Emma Green on the PBS Civil War drama Mercy Street.
James also made quite an impact on her Season 3 episode of Outlander last year, when her (you guessed it) spoiled and entitled character blackmailed someone to get what she wanted out of him.
