Sarah Ramos

Sarah Ramos grew up in front of the camera. She certainly knew what she wanted as a child, starting acting classes with Center Stage, Los Angeles, at the age of nine and pressuring her parents to get her an agent. Her persistence paid off starring in a series of commercials, adverts and short films before landing a key role in "American Dreams" (NBC, 2002-05) as brainy kid sister Patty Pryor in the '60s set drama, at the age of 11. Next came another lead in CW's "Runaway" (2006) which was unfortunately dropped after just one season. Ramos spent her teenage years making guest appearances on a number of high-profile shows including "Scrubs" (NBC, 2001-2010), "Law & Order" (NBC, 1990-2010), "Wizards of Waverly Place" (Disney, 2007-2012), "Without a Trace" (CBS, 2002-09) and "Ghost Whisperer" (CBS, 2005-2010), proving she was just as comfortable with comedy as drama. At just 19 years old, she was cast in her third leading role as Haddie Braverman in the TV reboot of Ron Howard's 1989 feature "Parenthood" (NBC, 2010-2015). Meanwhile, Ramos continued to expand her skill set between filming, providing voices for several cartoons including "Family Guy" (Fox, 1998- ) and "Robot Chicken" (Adult Swim, 2005-). She made her feature debut in "Why Stop Now" (2012), alongside Jesse Eisenberg, Melissa Leo and Tracy Morgan. She also produced, wrote and co-directed the short "The Arm" (2012), which won the Short Film Special Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival.
