Fresh out of Canada, Sarah Carter's career in Hollywood took off quickly, landing a string of series regular roles such as "Madeleine Poe", opposite James Woods, on CBS' Shark (2006), and "Maggie", on TNT's Steven Spielberg-produced Falling Skies (2011).

She has been classically trained in theater, voice and dance at Ryerson University in Toronto, and now works consistently with renowned director and coach, Larry Moss, with whom she recently work-shopped a production of Le Roi Jones/Amiri Baraka's, "Dutchman". With an education in fine arts and a background in musical theater, Sarah honors her love for the artistic process by spending as much time in the theater as her life will allow.

In film, Sarah has starred in several independent and studio pictures, including Haven (2004), Killing Zelda Sparks (2007), Berkeley (2005), The Weinstein Co.'s DOA: Dead or Alive (2006), New Line Cinema's Final Destination 2 (2003), most recently, she appeared, opposite Rachel McAdams, as "Diane", Jessica Lange's home-wrecker, in SpyGlass Pictures' blockbuster, The Vow (2012), and she just wrapped on Business Ethics (2019) starring as "Veronica" opposite Larenz Tate, which set to release in this Fall.
