Erika Marie Bierman is a Cuban-American actress. She was born in historic Savannah, Georgia which has been the site of many famous films. At the mere age of 8 , Erika expressed her desire to be an actress and begged her parents to let her compete in an acting/modeling contest in Orlando, Florida. She wrote her own monologue for the contest and got noticed by numerous reputable managers and agents. Her first big break came when she was cast as President Snow's Granddaughter in the Hunger Games Catching Fire. She was thrilled to work alongside Donald Sutherland in both Catching Fire and Mockingjay I Later; she appeared in Dumb and Dumber To, and worked with Jeff Daniels. In August 2015, she played "Rose" on the Peabody Award winning Sundance show Rectify. More recently, Erika played "Kylie" in Instant Family and had a great time on set with Mark Wahlberg, Rose Byrne and Isabela Moner. When Erika is not acting she enjoys singing, dancing and photography. She also enjoys traveling and improving her craft and was able to attend a Summer Acting Program at Harvard University as well as spend time in Geneva, Switzerland while attending Nord Anglia Summer Performing Arts with Juilliard.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
