Acting Career
Eden Sher's acting career spanning from the year 2001 to the present can be regarded as a fruitful one where she has come off age and learned the tricks of the acting trade.
Eden Sher has had many roles in television series throughout her career as an actress. But it was her role as Sue Heck played in The Middle which brought her fame and a starring role. Eden Sher won the prestigious Critics' Choice Television Awards for her role in The Middle in the category for the Best Comedy Supporting Actress in 2013.
When asked by Vulture Magazine how she relates to her character Sue, Eden said, “How much of myself has been infused into it. The discrepancy in age … I’ve always been four or five years older than this character. But since she started college, she sort of caught up to me. Twenty-one feels way less of an age gap than 13 to 17. I’ll do a scene or I’ll have this speech that means so much to me, and it’ll feel so personal. I’ve gotten better at acting. [Laughs.] I’ve seen the pilot again recently and I’m like, “Oh my god, I was so bad! I could’ve played that so much better!” It’s a good thing that I’ve learned so much and improved, but it continues year after year to become more personal. I used to eschew the whole “Sue is different than me” attitude, but now it’s like, I don’t know. She’s actually not that naïve. It’s this weird blurred line where Sue ends and Eden begins.”
In 2006, Eden Sher played the role of Gretchen in the comedy-drama series Weeds on Showtime. That same year she portrayed the role of Carrie Fenton in the series Sons & Daughters, which however was unfortunately cancelled eleven episodes into the first season.

Book Author
Talk Nerdy with Us asked Eden to describe her inspiration for writing her book, The Emotionary, ”Being crazy! (laughs) That was pretty much it. You grow up feeling crazy, and you have a lot of feelings. It’s a funny story, I was talking to my boyfriend the other day, and I realize it was not quite a memorable experience, but you know you grow up and you have to throw temper tantrums, and you have to scream! You just have to let it all out. You feel guilty for hours, and you just hate yourself, and you want to crawl in the corner. You just argue with yourself like ‘that’s the way you do it!’ You know? But it was just a combination of being obsessed with needing to be productive, being right, and the passion of knowing everything. Along with being hyper-emotional and then cycling through those phases of yourself. Like ‘oh no! I’m not doing enough, or I’m not feeling enough!’ Feeling all the feelings.”

Vulture Magazine asked Eden why her most popular show, The Middle avoids politics and how she feels about it, “I think maybe. I’m not sure. It’s definitely not the actors’ choice — we don’t have any say into what we do. Unless it’s something really egregious, but that’s never happened to that extent. I would then go to the writers and say, “I’m not doing this.” Which, luckily, I’ve never had to do. I’m not in the writers room, but I think there’s an element of … if you make something too timely, then it dates itself. I’ll be honest, this is something that I have to tell myself in order to be okay with not making any statement on the world around us on the show: It exists in its own world and you can’t look at it as a reflection on the actual issues that are happening. Different shows do different things. I feel it was a conscious effort on the writers’ part to go away from anything political. For me in my personal life, I like to do things that make a statement and relate to the real world, but I have to accept that The Middle is a different beast.”
