She attended Toms River High School North, and matriculated in 1994, then studied at Honors Tutorial College, Ohio University, and graduated with a Bachelor degree in theater in 1998. Even before she graduated, Piper was spotted by a casting director, Denise Fitzgerald, and offered an audition, and although she wasn`t selected for the part, Denise found her an agent, and Piper`s career was about to begin.
Piper moved to New York full time, and after just a couple of months, she got the role of Sara in the comedy film “Whiteboyz” (1999) starring Danny Hoch and Mark Webber, while also featuring rap legends Dr. Dre and Fat Joe. Her next role was as Karen Sympathy in another comedy film “The Adventures of Rocky & Bullwinkle” (2000), and the same year she starred in “Coyote Ugly” as Violet Sanford, alongside Adam Garcia and John Goodman. She received positive reviews for her performance, however, she decided to stay out of blockbuster films, and in the early 2000s appeared in “Lost And Delirious” (2001), “Slap Her, She`s French” (2002), and “Cheaper By The Dozen” (2003) with Steve Martin and Bonnie Hunt. She then continued with roles in “Perfect Opposites” (2004), “The I Inside” (2004), and “George and the Dragon” in the same year. The following year, Piper had several notable projects, including the sequel “Cheaper by the Dozen 2”, “Imagine Me and You” (2005), horror thriller “The Cave”, with Morris Chestnut and Cole Hauser, and “Perception”, all of which increased her net worth by a large margin.
The second half of the 2000s, Piper started by featuring in Christopher Nolan`s mystery sci-fi “The Prestige” (2006), alongside Christian Bale and Hugh Jackman, and a year later she appeared in “Because I Said So”, and in 2008 she starred with Paul Walker in “The Lazarus Project”. By 2010, Piper had also starred in “Carriers” (2009).

Her net worth has also increased thanks to her business career; she has opened a prohibition- themed bar called Employees Only, located in West Village, Manhattan, and restaurant Jack`s Wife Freda.
