Camille Saroyan is a fictional character in the American television series, Bones. She is portrayed by Tamara Taylor. Camille was introduced in The Titan on the Tracks, the first episode of the second season as the head of the Forensic Division, a new division formed during the summer of 2006.
[edit] Brief character history
She was born in the Bronx and had a hard time trying to get to the position she achieved at the Jeffersonian, having to perform autopsies in hard conditions, and admits to Booth she took the job because of the facilities.
She is a hard line woman who will take charge of her division and defend them if necessary, if she thinks they're in the right. In the beginning of the second season, she butts heads with Dr. Brennan and the team members, but eventually accepts their quirks and develops relationships with them. At one point early on in Season 2, she considers removing Dr. Brennan from her position at the Jeffersonian, until both Angela and Booth make it abundantly clear that if Brennan goes, they all go.
Dr. Saroyan and Booth have had an intimate/romantic relationship in the past, a relationship that is rekindled at an undisclosed point midway through the series. It is revealed in the episode "Aliens in a Spaceship" that they had plans to go to New York together. This relationship ended in "The Man in the Cell", when Booth asserted that workplace relationships put everyone in danger when high-pressure situations arose, after Camille is almost killed by a neurotoxin (bromomethane) she is exposed to by serial killer Howard Epps. She originally was supposed to die in the episode and ending the character of Cam, but the cast and producers thought she was a good addition to the storyline and decided to keep her.
In the season 3 episode of "The Pain in the Heart," it is revealed that Dr. Saroyan was a police officer for 10 years prior to obtaining her position in the Jeffersonian.
