Kaj-Erik Eriksen, a talented actor, began his acting career at the tender age of six in Vancouver, British Columbia. Starting as an extra and later landing small speaking roles, he eventually got his big break in the independent film "Quarantine". This was followed by his guest appearances on the popular TV show "MacGyver", which was his favorite show as a child.
In 1991, Kaj-Erik booked the role of David Scali, the son of Michael Chiklis' character on the long-running ABC drama "The Commish". This role catapulted him into the mainstream American TV world, earning him numerous award nominations, including a Hollywood Reporter Youth Star Award, a Youth in Film Award, and two YTV Achievement awards.
During the five-year run of "The Commish", Eriksen worked on various projects, including the re-make of the classic film "Captains Courageous" and television shows "Are You Afraid of the Dark?" and "Goosebumps".
After "The Commish" ended, Eriksen moved to Los Angeles and continued his career while attending school. He appeared in shows such as "Home Improvement" and "Walker Texas Ranger". In 1999, he returned to Vancouver to shoot two seasons of the critically acclaimed and cult-followed series "Beggars and Choosers".
In 2001, Eriksen landed the recurring role of Jeremy Peters on David E. Kelley's "Boston Public", which was supposed to be a four-episode arc but turned into a two-season role. This role remains one of his most recognizable to date.
Eriksen returned to Vancouver once again in 2004 to shoot the hit USA Network television series "The 4400", which he considers one of his favorite projects due to the close "family atmosphere" of the cast and crew.
Throughout his 25-year career, Eriksen has guest-starred on many popular TV shows, including "Tru Calling", "Stephen King's Dead Zone", "Star Trek: Enterprise", "NCIS", "Criminal Minds", and "The Closer".
In 2010, Kaj-Erik starred alongside Richard Thomas in the Hallmark movie "Time After Time". He currently resides in Los Angeles.
