As Samantha Waters in Profiler (1996 – 1999) she played a forensic psychologist with a dark past and she was reunited with her SB co-star A Martinez (Cruz).

Ally Walker studied biology and chemistry at the University of California, Santa Cruz and went on to work for a genetic engineering firm in San Francisco. While spending a semester at Richmond College of the Arts in London, Walker became interested in theater but did not pursue it as a career in lieu of her education in the sciences.
