Arianne Zucker Arianne Zuker, born in Northridge, California, and raised in Chatsworth, California, began her career as a model at the age of 16, providing her with several opportunities for travel. Some of her Favorite assignments include print jobs in France, Australia, New York and Japan. Arianne still remains represented by the Ford Modeling Agency. Transitioning from modeling to acting seems a natural transition nowadays, but was nevertheless nerve-racking for the five feet nine inch blonde Arianne. Five hour long screen tests and countless pages of dialogue would not discourage the young actress. Arianne would soon be cast as the unlucky in love gold digger Nicole Walker, a former model trapped in a bad marriage on NBC's top rated daytime drama, Days Of Our Lives. Life does really imitate art, but it wasn't Arianne's first time in front of the cameras. She's appeared in several national commercials for McDonald's and Mazda automobiles. Her theater credits include Babe Borelle in Beth Henley's Crimes Of The Heart, Maude in A Coupla White Chicks and Elaine in Neil Simon's Last Of The Little Red Hot Lovers. Arianne continues to study theater at the Howard Fine Studios in Los Angeles. When not living the rigorous life of a young actress, Arianne's other passions include horseback riding, skiing, and tae kwon do (she has a green belt). A lover of all sports, Arianne has recently started golfing, and enjoys watching classic films in her down time.
