Actress Arianne Bethene Zuker was born on June 3, 1974 in Northridge, California. She began her career as a model; her profession brought her to stints in Japan and Australia. She is most known, however, for her role in the daytime soap Days of our Lives, which she joined in 1998.

In the soap, she played the role of Nicole Walker, the scheming daughter of Paul Mendez and Fey Walker, who pursued relationships for personal or financial gain. Her first stint on the drama lasted until 2006; within that time, she won Soap Opera Digest Awards in 2001 and 2005 for her villainous roles. She returned to DOOL in 2008, still in an antagonistic role as before.

Apart from her duties on daytime, Zuker made appearances on other shows, notably as a contestant in E!’s Search Party in 1999, and a guest role on CSI: Miami in 2006. She also appeared in a film, Looking for Bobby D, in 2001. During the writers’ strike in 2007, she was involved in a web-only series entitled Life in General, a drama set behind the scenes of a daytime soap. The program progressed as it was sanctioned by the Screen Actors Guild during the strike.

Zuker is married to fellow Days of our Lives star Kyle Lowder, who appeared as drug addicted loner Brady Black. They married in 2002, but separately briefly in 2007, before patching up their differences a year later.
