Erin Cummings was born March 14, 1981, in Montreal, Canada. Both her parents are English-born (her dad, Peter, is a retired schoolteacher and her mom, Judy, is a former equestrian trainer). Along with her brother and sister, Ian and Pip, the family grew up in the cosmopolitan Canadian city.
Erin hadn't thought about modeling much, until a man representing the Next Modeling Agency approached her in a Montreal coffee shop. Though apprehensive at first, the $2,000 paycheck was too good to resist.
Her first job was a shampoo ad, which ran in local publications. One of those magazines, Elle Quebec, happened to land in the hands of a New York modeling agent, who quickly scooped her up upon seeing her.
A year later, Erin found herself working for Gucci in Paris, but the following year, her career really started heating up. Upon signing with the Karin agency in New York, she found herself inside the pages of Vogue, Cosmopolitan and Jane.
And in addition to her print ads for Sisley and Ann Taylor, she also earned a spot inside the coveted 2002 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue.
We're confident that Erin is on the right path to further prosperity. Currently residing in New York City, she has a Canadian boyfriend and continues her various modeling projects.
