Launched to fame as the star of teen sitcom "Cake" (CBS, 2006), actress Christa B. Allen then made the transition into prime-time TV with recurring roles in soapy drama "Revenge" (ABC, 2011-2015) and family sitcom "Baby Daddy" (ABC Family, 2012-). Born in Wildomar, CA in 1991, the youngest of nine siblings started taking acting lessons aged nine and made her on-screen debut as a young Jennifer Garner in bodyswap romantic comedy "13 Going on 30" (2004). Following a supporting role in festive TV movie "A Merry Little Christmas" (2006) and a guest spot on psychic drama "Medium" (NBC, 2005-2011) playing a young woman who dies in childbirth, Allen landed the lead role of the titular aspiring fashion designer in kids' comedy "Cake" (CBS, 2006). Allen stuck to the tween genre following the show's cancellation, appearing as Zach's rich-girl love interest Violet Berry in an episode of "The Suite Life on Deck" (Disney Channel, 2008-2011) and Cheyenne in "Cory in the House" (Disney Channel, 2007-08) before moving onto medical dramas "Grey's Anatomy" (ABC, 2005-) where she played a teenage girl who dies after crashing her car while texting, and "ER" (NBC, 1994-2009), where she played a cyclist who gets knocked down by a car. After adding to her filmography with a one-off part in "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" (CBS, 2000-) and a minor role in "Chasing a Dream" (2009), a TV movie in which a young athlete attempts to honor his late best friend's memory, Allen played a younger Jennifer Garner for the second time in her career in "Ghosts of Girlfriends Past" (2009). Allen then returned to familiar territory when she guested as a girl obsessed with Josh in "Wizards of Waverly Place" (Disney Channel, 2007-2012), made a cameo in Michael Cera-starring oddball comedy "Youth in Revolt" (2009) and appeared as a younger version of congresswoman Annabelle Bennet in crime procedural "Cold Case" (CBS, 2010-). In 2011, Allen made her prime-time breakthrough when she was cast as the intelligent but mentally unstable daughter of Victoria, Charlotte Grayson, in the soap opera, "Revenge" (ABC, 2011-2015) During her four seasons on the show, Allen also starred as a pregnant girl encouraged to get an abortion by her skateboarding boyfriend in Hawaii-set indie drama "One Kine Day" (2012) and the daughter of a coma victim whose twin sister attempts to take her identity in TV movie "Deadly Sibling Rivalry" (2012). After appearing as Janet in zombie horror comedy "Detention of the Dead" (2013), Allen joined the fourth season cast of sitcom "Baby Daddy" (ABC Family, 2012-) as Danny's girlfriend Robyn.
