Additional Erik Von Detten Biography
Erik Thomas von Detten (born October 3, 1982) is an American actor. He has appeared in the films The Princess Diaries (2001), American Girl (2002) and National Lampoon's Barely Legal (2003), which was released on DVD in early 2006.
Von Detten was born in San Diego, California. His father, Volker von Detten, is an immigrant from Munich, Germany. His mother, Susan (Farber), is an American photographer. He has three sisters, Dolly, Britta, and Andrea, and a brother, Timothy. As of 2003, he had a Dalmatian named Miles.
One of Von Detten's earliest roles was as Nicholas Alamain on the daytime soap opera Days of Our Lives from 1992 until 1993.

Perhaps the most notable storyline during Von Detten's time on the soap was Nicholas' accidental killing of his father's lover Lisanne Gardner, who had been attempting to blackmail Lawrence over the secret of Nicholas's parentage.
At thirteen, he provided the voice of Sid Phillips in the hit movie Toy Story.
