BIOGRAPHY:

Keri began her career on the Mickey Mouse Club in 1991. She stayed with the show until 1993. After leaving "MMC" (1989) (where she, along with her fellow castmates recorded an album, MMC), she moved to LA to pursue an acting career. She starred in Aaron Spelling's "Malibu Shores" (1996) on NBC.


TRIVIA:

• (1999) On People magazine's '50 Most Beautiful' list.
• She and her fiancé, Shane Deary, were married on Valentine's Day, 2007, at a restaurant in New York City. Deary is a contractor.
• Currently (2006) serving as a model and spokesperson for Cover Girl cosmetics.
• Did not return for the final season of _"MMC" (1989)_ (qv) in order to film the short-lived sitcom _"Daddy's Girls" (1994)_ (qv).
• Raised in Mesa, Arizona and Denver, Colorado.
• Parents are David and Stephanie.
• After Keri had her hair clipped in August 1999, this affected the overall performance of _"Felicity" (1998)_ (qv), where it affected fan consensus and the Nielsen ratings. A letter-writing campaign saved the show for another season, and the WB network came up with a resolution, where young stars will not alter their current hairstyles as a strategy to avoid a TV series airing on the WB network, to cause it to be cancelled, or for worse, having an actor/actress fired or subsequently terminated out of his/her contract.
• Had a child in real life almost exactly a year after playing a pregnant woman in _Waitress (2007)_ (qv).
