From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Detective Irene Daniels is a fictional character featured in TNT's The Closer, portrayed by Gina Ravera. Daniels is a Detective on the Los Angeles Police Department's (LAPD) Priority Homicide Department.
While her character is usually not in the foreground of the show or the investigation, it has been seen in recent episodes that Detective Daniels is a very strong woman who can relate to the families of victims. Extremely intelligent and sassy, Detective Daniels is a hard worker with a sense of humor. Her good looks get her more on-the-job attention than she sometimes wants. However, she never hesitates to put the detectives in their place when they attempt to flirt with her -- except for Sgt. David Gabriel, whom she is currently dating, though, at least on screen, they have never been shown to have a flirtatious relationship so as to avoid attention to their relationship from their superiors.
