Erin Jessica Cahill (born January 4, 1980) is an American actress best known for her roles as Jen Scotts in Power Rangers Time Force, Heather Mosby in How I Met Your Mother, and Kendra Burke in Saving Grace. In 2013, Cahill plays the recurring role of Felicity in ABC's Red Widow.

Cahill is also noted to be the first lead female character for the Call of Duty franchise, as Chloe 'Karma' Lynch in Call of Duty: Black Ops II.

In March 2013, Cahill was cast as Rachel in Delirium,^[1] a pilot based on Lauren Oliver's popular young adult books. FOX's Broadcasting Company passed on the pilot, however, this exposed Cahill to a wider, dedicated fanbase.

Early life

Cahill was born in Stafford, Virginia. She began acting in her mother's local high school productions at age 4, and started singing and dancing lessons at age 8. Cahill was Miss Pre-Teen Virginia in 1991 and the first runner-up for Miss Junior America. She continued to act into her high school years at Brooke Point High School, where she served as the president of many clubs, including the Honor Thespians group. As a junior, Cahill was the only one of her year to garner perfect scores in all phases of her audition to the Governor's School for the Arts in drama. At age 16, she also won Overall Actor in the Actors, Models, Talent for Christ competition. Cahill was further selected into the Barton and Williams Dance Company, winning both company and individual awards. Following high school graduation in 1998, Cahill attended Marymount Manhattan College in New York on an academic and performing arts scholarship. She left college at age 19 to pursue a full-time acting career in Los Angeles, California.

Career

Upon arriving to Los Angeles in 2000, Cahill was quickly cast as Jen Scotts, the Pink Ranger, in Power Rangers Time Force. She started her guest-starring roles in 2003 with Crossing Jordan and General Hospital. In 2006, Cahill starred on the short-lived FOX series Free Ride, as a series regular and female lead. Her first big guest star came the following year in 2007 as a 20th century suffragette in the Cold Case episode, "Torn".

Since then, Cahill has worked in numerous film and television productions such as Supernatural, CSI: Miami, The Mentalist, Castle, Ghost Whisperer, Grey's Anatomy, and House. She has done commercials for Bank of America, TJ Maxx, Hyundai, Applebee's, Tampax, and Lean Cuisine. Cahill's most recent work includes short film The Ventriloquist, produced by and starring Kevin Spacey; voice and motion-capture credits as Chloe 'Karma' Lynch in Call of Duty: Black Ops II; and a recurring role as Felicity in ABC's Red Widow.

Biography

Erika Eleniak was born in the Los Angeles suburb of Glendale, California. Erika is of Ukrainian and Estonian descent. She is the eldest daughter in a family of four girls and one boy. Erika began her acting career at the age of 10, starring in numerous productions for television, film, commercials and theater. Her first film role was in the 1982 feature called E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982), by Steven Spielberg. Her film credit given was "Pretty Girl". Erika was spotted by a talent scout working for Steven Spielberg in a performer's audition showcase. Erika's mother was very determined for Erika to have a normal childhood and finish school, so Erika worked a couple of jobs a year throughout childhood and adolescence, until after graduating High School. It was directly after this, that Erika joined the original cast of "Baywatch" (1989) and stayed on the show for the first 2 years. Erika decided to leave the show after it changed direction. She wanted to venture out into other avenues and so began a successful film career. Erika starred in such films as Under Siege (1992), The Beverly Hillbillies (1993), Chasers (1994), Bordello of Blood (1996), A Pyromaniac's Love Story (1995), among many others. In 2001, Erika did a film called Snowbound (2001) (aka "White Lies"), in Calgary, Alberta Canada, where she met and fell in love with a film technician. While Erika lived in Calgary, she did many independent films and cable movies, including some for Lifetime. Erika has dual citizenship with the U.S and Canada. After 6 years, Erika and Roch split up and Erika moved back home to the United States with Indyanna. Erika and her daughter reside in the Greater Los Angeles area. Erika has come home to be with her family and surround her young daughter, Indyanna, with loved ones. Erika is also working very hard on her career. She is more focused and ready to work than ever before. Erika's latest work includes a guest-starring role on "CSI: Miami" (2002), which aired in October of 2010 and a guest-starring role, rumored to be reoccurring, on "Desperate Housewives" (2004), which aired in November of 2010

Their relationship became complicated when Ferguson's father, Robert, married Eleniak's mother.^[3]

Career

In 1989, Eleniak had a recurring role on the TV series Charles In Charge as Charles's girlfriend, Stephanie Curtis. That same year, she won a role on Baywatch as female lead Shauni McClain, which she played from 1989 to 1992, leaving after the second episode of Season 3.

In 1992, Eleniak returned to film acting, playing Jordan Tate, a Playboy Playmate hired to do a striptease for the captain of the U.S. Navy battleship, USS Missouri, in Under Siege. In the film, she is described as "Jordan Tate, Miss July 1989"—which is the month that Eleniak was Playmate of the Month in real life.
She attempted to capitalize on this success by starring as Elly May Clampett in the screen adaptation of The Beverly Hillbillies in 1993, but the film flopped. The next year, she starred in the Dennis Hopper-directed romantic comedy film Chasers. William McNamara, one of her co-stars in this film, also became her fiancé for a brief period.

She also fell in love with Roch Daigle, a key grip who worked on the set. Having wanted to leave Los Angeles for years and finding commuting to and from Telluride, Colorado too difficult, Eleniak purchased a home in Calgary, where Daigle lived.^[2] Eleniak became pregnant in 2005, but six and a half weeks into her term, the pregnancy was discovered to be ectopic, which required emergency surgery days later. It ended in miscarriage, but Eleniak soon became pregnant again. Her first child, daughter Indyanna, was born in January 2006.^[9]
