Early life

Orlins was born in New York City, and grew up between New York and China. She attended Hong Kong International School while in Hong Kong, and Sidwell Friends School after returning to the United States.[2] Orlins graduated summa cum laude from Syracuse University (2005), and cum laude from Fordham University School of Law (2008).[3][4][5][6] She is Jewish, and her grandmother escaped Nazi persecution by fleeing Paris during World War II.[7][8]

Eliza's father, Stephen Orlins, has served as the president of the National Committee on United States–China Relations since 2005.[9] Eliza's mother, Washington, D.C.-based writer Susan Orlins, appeared on the 11th episode of Survivor: Vanuatu as part of the loved ones visit challenge, which Eliza won.[10] Eliza has two younger sisters, Sabrina and Emily,[11] the former of whom was adopted from Beijing.[12]

Survivor

Vanuatu

Шаблон:Main In 2004, Orlins competed on the ninth season of the CBS reality show Survivor, entitled Survivor: Vanuatu. Orlins started the season sorted onto the all-female Yasur tribe.[13] Orlins caught the ire of her alliance when she flipped to vote out an indecisive swing voter in Dolly Neely in the second episode.[14] At the merge, the six remaining female castaways re-aligned,[15] and the group voted out their male competitors until only Chris Daugherty remained. Despite Daugherty losing immunity, Leann Slaby sought to eliminate Orlins. After Daugherty was informed by Julie Berry that he was safe, he successfully worked with Twila Tanner and Scout Cloud Lee to convince Orlins to vote out Slaby.[16] After Ami Cusack was voted out, Orlins re-aligned with Berry due to her annoyance of Tanner. Orlins then won immunity but was unsuccessful in convincing Daugherty resulting in Berry's elimination.[17] Orlins was then the 15th person voted out the next day during the finale on Day 37, finishing in 4th place.[18]

Micronesia

Шаблон:Main Orlins returned seven seasons later on Survivor: Micronesia.[19] Orlins started the season on the returnee player Malakal tribe. Orlins formed an alliance with Ami Cusack, Yau-Man Chan, and Jonathan Penner. Despite being targeted by an opposing alliance, Orlins survived the first Tribal Council after Jonny Fairplay asked to be voted out to be with his pregnant girlfriend.[20] However, in the following days, all of Orlins's original allies had been eliminated leaving Orlins as the target of Parvati Shallow when the tribes merged in the ninth episode. After Jason Siska won individual immunity, he agreed to give Orlins what he believed to be a hidden immunity idol, which in reality was a stick carved by Ozzy Lusth. Orlins was then eliminated, becoming the first member of the season's jury.[21]
