Garner gained recognition on television for her performance as CIA agent Sydney Bristow in the thriller drama series Alias, which aired on ABC for five seasons from 2001 to 2006. Her younger sister is Susannah Kay Garner Carpenter. Even as Garner was cast after several auditions, Abrams revealed that he remained panicked with the thought that she might not be able to pull off the role, especially as, on the first day of shooting, he was told by Garner herself, “I don’t think I can do this.” Garner later commented, “I was such a girlie-girl then. The first few episodes of season one of Alias, which averaged about 10.2 million weekly viewers, earned Garner the award for “Best Actress in a Television Series – Drama” at the 2002 Golden Globe Awards. Since her relationship with Affleck, first as girlfriend and then as wife, Garner has been a tabloid staple. Garner had been stalked since 2002 by a man, Steven Burky, who was eventually arrested in December 2009, after violating a 2008 restraining order against him.
