Career

McKeon starred on Saved by the Bell: The New Class, playing Katie Peterson, debuting with the series' fourth season in 1996 and continuing until the series ended in 2000. She joined the CBS daytime soap opera Guiding Light in November 2001, playing the character of Marah Lewis until 2004.[2] In a June 2002 Victoria Advocate article, McKeon said of her character, Marah, "She could definitely make some smarter choices where men are concerned, but couldn't we all?" and "I just hope she's learned as much as I have after going through all of this."[3]

McKeon has appeared as a series regular in Fox's The Opposite Sex and had a recurring role on Boy Meets World.[4] Additional television credits include the lead in Class Warfare, a USA Network movie-of-the-week, and episodes of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Grounded for Life, Maybe It's Me, Special Unit 2, 3rd Rock from the Sun, House, and Odd Man Out.

She also made guest appearances on the shows Supernatural and Veronica Mars, and on One Tree Hill as Taylor James, the sister of Haley James Scott played by fellow Guiding Light alumnus Bethany Joy Galeotti. Her film credits include Shredder and Class Warfare.

Personal life

In the late 1990s, McKeon was involved with Scott Ashley Sterling (son of Donald Sterling[5]). The day she broke up with Sterling, a fight ensued between him and his friend Philip Scheid, who Sterling thought was trying to steal Mckeon from him, resulting in Scheid being shot by Sterling with a shotgun.[6]

She is married to longtime boyfriend Brant Hively, with the couple having wed in 2014 in a small intimate outdoor ceremony.[7]
