Andrea Zuckerman
From 90210pedia
Andrea Zuckerman, played by Gabrielle Carteris, is a character introduced in the first series of the Beverly Hills, 90210 continuity.
Andrea was introduced as a dedicated high school student at West Beverly Hills High School, who also served as an editor of the West Beverly Blaze paper. She became close friends with Brandon Walsh, a writer for the school paper, and initially had a crush on him. Andrea's goal throughout high school was to reach Yale University, and she ultimately received encouragement from the student-friendly teacher Gil Meyers. At times, however, a self-conscious Andrea became confused as to what Mr. Meyers' true wishes were in regards to her future. This, combined with her general admiration for him—along with her occasionally implied attraction—created an anxiety that she sometimes found hard to control. In the end, however, it was revealed that Mr. Meyers only wanted the best for Andrea and all the students, which led them to separate on good terms.
While in college, Andrea met and fell in love with Jesse Vasquez. The two eventually married and had a daughter, Hannah Zuckerman-Vasquez. During a work-imposed separation, the couple grew apart, and both ended up straying. After confessing their flings to one another, the marriage became quite strained. However, following advice from Dylan McKay, the couple eventually stopped arguing long enough to talk out their differences in front of their baby daughter, and realized that the marriage was worth saving.
Andrea came back to Beverly Hills during the season finale of season 6 to attend Steve's 21st birthday party on the Queen Mary.
She returned again two years later in season 8 to attend her five-year high school reunion. During the event, she told her friends that she and Jesse were divorcing for real. Brandon and Andrea got into a brief argument due to the fact that Brandon called her a quitter. When Andrea has a meltdown on stage, Brandon and Andrea make up quickly and Brandon says her speech instead.
She returned during the series finale to see David and Donna get married, apparently divorced and a single mother. In the spin-off 90210, Andrea and Jesse's daughter, Hannah, is briefly seen at West Beverly, reporting school news just as her mother did.
