'The Good Wife' Actress Archie Panjabi On The Couch

NEW YORK (WLNY) -- Actress Archie Panjabi is an Emmy-winning enigma as tough investigator Kalinda Sharma on the hit CBS drama "The Good Wife."

In real life, Panjabi is dedicating herself to wiping out polio. She has teamed up with the humanitarian organization Rotary International to protect children everywhere by eradicating the crippling disease.

"I grew up in London and at the age of 10, I moved to Mumbai for 2 years," said Panjabi. "One of the things that struck me on my daily walk to school was seeing polio survivors crawling on the streets using just their hands."

Recently, Panjabi went to India to immunize children there.
