Personal life

Sky was raised in Jensen Beach, Florida. At 15, she was offered two months of summer modeling in Japan. She left for New York at the age of 17 to study acting under the tutelage of several acclaimed acting coaches, and became well-versed in the Meisner technique of acting. She has a sister Katie. Sky married Alex Band of The Calling on July 25, 2004, but the couple divorced in 2009.

On September 10, 2013, the New York Times published an op-ed from Sky, entitled My Life as a Warrior Princess, in which she compared the terrible working conditions she experienced as a teenage fashion model with the much superior working conditions she experienced as an actor. She described how inspirational she found her work on the show Xena: Warrior Princess.

Fashion label

Sky, Katie and her former sister-in-law, Taryn Band, created the fashion label Vanitas of California.

Career

She has appeared as a regular cast member on such TV shows as General Hospital, Xena: Warrior Princess, Cleopatra 2525, "Fastlane", in CSI: Miami, and in guest roles on Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Charmed.

She was ranked #90 on the Maxim Hot 100 Women of 2003. She has written for her hometown newspaper, The Stuart News. She is featured in the opinion section. According to her October 2010 column in the News, she has suffered from severe health problems and now lives and studies in New York City.

She is currently a freelance writer and has written for New York Magazine's "The Cut," the New York Observer, Interview magazine, The Daily Beast, and the Atavist.

In February of 2014, she posted a video to YouTube in which she describes the emotional, professional and sexual mistreatment she feels she has suffered over the course of her career. In the video, Sky denounces the fashion model industry and calls on viewers to fight for the creation of labor unions for models, stricter regulations on the employment of children, and an end to what she describes as the systematic abuses of the industry.
