Erin Sanders originated the role, but she was recast with Vanessa Marano, who portrayed Eden from December 2008 until January 2010. In June 2011, the character returned with Jessica Heap, who remained until January 2013. Eden is the half-sister of Michael Baldwin (Christian LeBlanc) and the "defiant teenage daughter" of River Baldwin (Michael Gross).
