Susan Ward (born April 15, 1976) is an American actress and model.
Early years[edit]
Ward was born in Monroe, Louisiana,[citation needed] the daughter of detective Eddie Ward and Sue Ward, a nurse and associate professor.[1] She attended Ouachita Parish High School and graduated from River Oaks High School.
Career[edit]
Ward began modeling at the age of 13, leaving school and moving to New York City to do so. She began acting several years later. She appeared in the soap opera All My Children in 1995, and in NBC's teen drama Malibu Shores, produced by Aaron Spelling.[citation needed]
In late 1996, Ward began playing virginal Meg Cummings on Spelling's soap opera Sunset Beach,[2] which aired from 1997 to 1999. In 1999 she turned to films, and starred as the psychotic Brittany Foster in the 2000 teen thriller The In Crowd. The movie was a commercial disappointment in theaters, but found some success on cable and home video. The following year, Ward played a supporting role in the Farrelly Brothers movie Shallow Hal. She has also acted in numerous other direct-to-DVD movies, and has made guest appearances in various TV shows, most notably Friends.
In 2009, she landed the role Chloe Kmetko, mother of a young gymnast, on the ABC Family drama series Make It or Break It. She was part of the main cast during the show's first two seasons.
Personal life[edit]
On June 4, 2005, Ward married David C. Robinson, the vice-president of Morgan Creek Productions, the movie studio that produced The In Crowd. They met when he cast her as the lead of the film in 1999 and wed on June 4, 2005. Dr. D.H. Clark, a friend of the bride, performed the ceremony.[1] They welcomed their first child, a boy, Cameron "Spanky" Robinson, on July 4, 2013.[3] She has one brother, Michael Ward.
