Early life, education and career

Growing up in Pittsburgh, Erin set her sights on a career in the medical field at a young age.

Husband – Jon Bernthal

Jon was born in Washington, DC, and is of Jewish descent. His father worked as a lawyer, while he also had a background in the performing arts, while his grandfather worked as a musician. He grew up alongside two brothers who would pursue completely different interests. His family later moved and settled in Cabin John, Maryland, where he attended nearby Sidwell Friends School. At the time, he was unspectacular academically and was often referred to as a troublemaker during his childhood. After graduating from high school, he moved to New York to attend Skidmore College, but eventually dropped out.

He then pursued an interest in acting, at the encouragement of a teacher. He moved to Russia and joined the prestigious Moscow Art Theater, while also earning some money by joining a professional baseball team, serving as a catcher for the next few years. During his time at performing arts school, he was discovered by a theater director from Harvard University, who later helped him get a start in New York City. Initially, he moved there to participate in stage plays, mainly appearing in off-Broadway productions.

After starring in over 30 productions, Bernthal transitioned to television, where he guest-starred in such projects as “How I Met Your Mother,” “Boston Legal,” and “CSI: Miami.”

In 2006, seeing more opportunities for screen work in Los Angeles, he moved there and landed a regular role in the sitcom “The Class”, but it was short-lived as it was canceled after one season. Even then, he continued to find work thanks to the opportunities in LA, appearing in such films as “World Trade Center” and “Day Zero.” He also had regular roles in shows like “Eastwick” and the miniseries “The Pacific ocean”, which aired on HBO.

In 2009, he got his breakthrough after being cast in the television adaptation of “The Walking Dead”, playing Shane Walsh.

Many people got to know him in this role, as he gained a lot of exposure thanks to the liberties the show took to differentiate itself from its source content. After the end from his run with the show in 2013, he went on to other projects, becoming a prominent supporting character in “Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian”, “Mob City”, “The Ghost Writer”, and “Small Engine Repair ” .

Private life
