Personal life

Carter was born in Toronto and raised in Winnipeg, Manitoba. She was in the prestigious Royal Winnipeg Ballet.[1] Carter was also on the debate team and named one of the top three public speakers in the world.[1][2] She competed in various countries including Austria, England, and Argentina.

After graduating high school, Carter moved to Switzerland where she studied fine arts at Neuchâtel Junior College for one year.[1] She subsequently attended Ryerson Theatre School in Toronto.[citation needed] At some point, Carter took time off from acting, spending time in India and Cuba, where she worked in an orphanage.[1]

On June 19, 2011, Carter was one of thirty-five climbers who scaled Mount Shasta to raise money for the Breast Cancer Fund, for which she is a spokesperson.[3] She has also hiked the West Coast Trail.[4]

Since 2014, Carter has been married to Kevin Barth.[citation needed] They have a daughter born in 2017.[5]

Carter's early television career included appearances in Wolf Lake, Dark Angel, and Undeclared, and she was also cast in Final Destination 2. She also appeared in three episodes of Smallville, in which she played fan favorite Alicia Baker, who has a romantic relationship with Clark Kent. In 2006, Carter starred in the film DOA: Dead or Alive, playing the character Helena Douglas, a fighter who enters a martial arts contest.

Her later television career has included playing the character Madeline Poe, a rookie prosecutor in Shark between 2006 and 2008, appearing in all 38 episodes of the series. In 2009, she also appeared in CSI: NY, as the character Haylen Becall, a forensic school graduate.[6][7]

Carter became a regular character, Maggie, on the TNT series Falling Skies, which debuted in June 2011. An apocalyptic alien invasion story, season 2 began on June 17, 2012 and concluded on August 19, 2012. Season 3 premiered June 9, 2013.
