Career
Career
After graduating from Sarah Lawrence College, Carteris's early television career found her typically cast as a teenager in such fare as ABC Afterschool Specials, CBS Schoolbreak Special, and the long-running soap opera Another World. This trend of playing significantly younger characters would continue, when in 1990, she was cast in her best-known role as studious school newspaper editor Andrea Zuckerman on Beverly Hills, 90210. At age 29, she was the oldest cast member to portray a 15-year-old, lying about her age to get the part. By 1993, while working for the show, her GABCO Productions company signed a deal with Rysher TPE. In 1995, Carteris left the series and became the host of her own television talk show, Gabrielle, which lasted only one season. Following this, she worked regularly as an actor and voiceover artist, amassing a considerable amount of post-90210 credits in television, film, and video games. She became a mainstay in television films, starring in nearly a dozen of them. Her first, Seduced and Betrayed, was released in 1995. She became a regular presence on network television, appearing in episodes of series such as Touched by an Angel, King of the Hill, NYPD Blue, JAG, Criminal Minds, and NCIS, among others. She has appeared in several feature films. Carteris also provided the voice for the Motorola intelligent assistant "Mya." In 2019, Carteris appeared on Fox's BH90210 reboot, appearing both as Andrea Zuckerman and herself. The fictionalized version of herself was portrayed as sexually questioning and engaged in a brief relationship with former 90210 guest-star turned fictional Fox executive Christine Elise.
