them tweet their experiences to hundreds of thousands of fans.

seven million viewers in the seventh season: David Zayas (Sgt. Angel Batista),
Lauren Vélez (Lt. Maria LaGuerta, the captain of Miami Metro's homicide
department) and C.S. Lee (Vince Masuka, the head forensics specialist for Miami
Metro PD).
Also arriving will be 18-year-old Zoey Deutch, who stars in
"Vampire Academy: Blood Sisters" and has 53,000 followers on Twitter;
"Hell on Wheels" star Anson Mount; actor Jason Butler Harner
("Kill the Irishman," "CSI," "Alcatraz,"
"The Green"); actor Malik Yoba ("The Twilight Zone,"
"Girlfriends," "Raines," "Thief"); actress Vivian
Bang ("Sullivan & Son," "Kath & Kim," "Better
Off Ted," "House M.D.," "Sex and the City"); and Lea
Thompson (the films "Jaws 3-D," "Back to the Future,"
"Dennis the Menace" and "SpaceCamp" and TV series
"Caroline in the City").
The stars will be joined by film and television director
Howard Deutch. The delegation members will tour the country, visit IDF bases
and receive briefings.
