Life and career
Erin Sanders was born in Santa Monica, California.[2] She states she is a Jew.[3][4] At the age of 13, she began her starring role as Quinn Pensky on the Nickelodeon television series Zoey 101.[5] Through all four seasons, Sanders played the resident science genius at Pacific Coast Academy and roommate of Zoey (portrayed by Jamie Lynn Spears).
Following Zoey 101, Sanders worked for several months on CBS's The Young and the Restless playing Eden Baldwin, the daughter of Michael Grossman. Shortly thereafter, Scott Fellows, the creator of the Nickelodeon series Big Time Rush approached Sanders for the role of Camille; he was a longtime fan of hers and wrote the role with her in mind. So she returned to Nickelodeon, while continuing her work in adult drama.
In 2014 Sanders played the role of Chris on the third season of the ABC Family comedy Melissa and Joey.[6] She has had guest-starring roles on many other television series, including Mad Men, Weeds, Castle, The Mentalist, and CSI: Miami. Sanders has also had roles in several independent films, and played the lead role of Traci in Guilty at 17 which premiered on Lifetime in 2014.[7]
She is set to appear in an episode of the Nickelodeon sketch comedy series All That in a sketch with many of her Zoey 101 co-stars.[8]
