Early life

[edit]

Erin Constance-Maja Darke[4] was born September 10, 1984,[5] in Flint, Michigan[6] to Kristina Strand and Ian Darke.[7]

At the age of 16, Darke enrolled in the University of Michigan-Flint, where in 2005 she earned a bachelor's degree of fine arts in theater performance. As Darke told her alma mater, "[The teachers at the school] were patient and kind, but also constantly pushed me to challenge myself, explore, and work hard. These are all things that are essential to a career in this industry and I'm grateful to have learned them early."[6]

Career

[edit]

Shortly after graduating, Darke moved to New York City and starred in several plays before getting a job at a casting office. This was her full time job until she decided that "my heart was still in acting"[6] and went on to star in Obelisk Road, a 2009 short film,[8] and procured minor roles in the 2011 films We Need to Talk About Kevin and Young Adult.[9] In 2012, Darke had a minor role in Disconnect.[10] Darke played a small role in the 2013 thriller Kill Your Darlings. She met British-American actor Daniel Radcliffe on set in 2012, and they began a relationship.[6] Along with Kill Your Darlings, Darke played a lead role in Beside Still Waters.[11] In 2014, Darke acted in Still Alice[12] and Hunter&Game,[13] along with several other films.

In 2015, she landed a lead role in the television series Good Girls Revolt,[14] which follows several young female news reporters who sue their male bosses for showing them sexism.[15] Darke starred in the 2016 film Delinquent.[16] In 2017, Darke played Mary in The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.[17] Darke acted in the 2018 TV series Dietland.[18] Together with Radcliffe, Darke starred in Miracle Workers in 2019.[19] In 2023, Darke played an AI in Molli and Max in the Future.[20]

Personal life
