Elizabeth also has an older half-sister, Katherine, from her father’s first marriage.
Her parents have largely kept her private life out of the spotlight.
She made her acting debut in 2022, when she joined her father in The Santa Clauses, the Disney+ continuation of the beloved Christmas film franchise.
She plays Sandra Calvin-Claus, Scott Calvin’s animal-loving daughter.

Tim initially hoped to give Elizabeth a small role as an elf so she could have a fun experience on set.
However, after she auditioned for a speaking part, the production team considered her for Sandra instead.
At a press conference, Tim explained that he hadn't intended for her to land a major role, saying he simply “wanted her to have a small part as a Christmas surprise for the family.”
The casting process still required Elizabeth to audition.
Tim said he was initially reluctant to have her read for a larger part because she already had school and basketball commitments.
But when she read the material, the producers saw potential in her performance.
In some of the show’s promotional interviews, the father-daughter duo joked about their different approaches to learning lines.
Elizabeth teased Tim for seeming to know his dialogue without practicing, while he quipped that he sometimes forgot his lines when he was “busy improvising a better joke.”

Elizabeth later appeared alongside both of her parents in the 2024 independent film Thee Third Act.
In an interview with Us Weekly, published in December 2023, while discussing his experience working with his daughter, Tim said:
“It’s one of those moments that I’ll carry with me forever. To see the professional that she’s turned into, she treats everybody well, shows up on time, does her job, works long hours, [with] no complaints.”
