At age 15, she was discovered and encouraged to pursue an acting career by a talent scout, who had seen her win a beauty/talent pageant.
She dropped out of Greenway High School during her junior year, and she and her mother moved to Los Angeles so she could become an actress. She later obtained her diploma in California. There, she started taking acting classes and went to auditions almost every day. After living in L.A. about four months, she landed the role of 'Erica McCray' on the NBC series A Brand New Life (1989).

In the new series, Garth's character Kelly Taylor is now a guidance counselor at West Beverly High, where her half-sister Erin Silver also attends. Kelly now has a four and a half year old son with long-time flame Dylan McKay. The writers were eager to have her share scenes with Shannen Dohertywho is also reprising her 90210 role of Brenda Walsh. It was reported that Garth and Doherty's characters would both have a romantic interest in the character Ryan Matthews (Ryan Eggold, reminiscent of their old rivalry for former bad boy character Dylan McKay.
