Dr. Cleo Finch was a fictional medical doctor in the television series ER, during Seasons 6 to 8 (1999-2002). She was portrayed by actress Michael Michele.
We meet her at the start of season 6 as a tough new pediatric resident at County. She always jogged to work and exercised daily. Cleo started a relationship with talented doctor Peter Benton, and eventually met his family. She met Reese and surprised Peter by communicating some sign language she already knew to his deaf son. She was happy being with Peter and his son but Peter's old girlfriend, Carla, would often clash with her over Cleo's perceived interference in family matters.
A patient case shook both Cleo and Peter into issues concerning race and health care, in which Cleo told Peter how her biracial background had nothing to do with her understanding of the problems in the African-American community. Nonetheless, Cleo stayed steady with Peter through a rough child custody battle he was going through, where he eventually won. In late 2001, Cleo found a smoother job at a private pediatric clinic, that made Peter uncomfortable because of the long distance between them. Both doctors left the ER together in the Season 8 episode "I'll Be Home For Christmas" (2001). She was later seen attending Mark Greene's funeral alongside Peter in Season 8's penultimate episode "On the Beach" (2002).
