Erin Sikowitz is a Corrections Officer at Litchfield Penitentiary. She is portrayed by Eden Malyn.

Personality[]

Sikowitz seems to have a rather anti-social personality, reveling in the fact that the first part of her last name is pronounced "psycho", as seen when she practices take downs with CO Bell. She does not seem concerned at the inadequate level of training provided by MCC when she starts as a rookie CO, but her inexperience becomes apparent when she balks upon finding Sophia Burset being attacked in her salon, and, instead of intervening, runs to get Caputo.

Physical Appearance[]

Sikowitz is a tall, slim white woman with brown hair.

Biography[]

Season Three[]

Sikowitz is one of the guards hired by MCC in the third season. She is not interested in joining the other guards in unionizing and improving their work situation. Though she projected a tough persona on her first training day, she is soon shown to be overwhelmed and unprepared for her new job, demonstrated when Sophia is attacked in her salon. Sikowitz was the first officer on the scene, but instead of intervening, she ran to get Caputo to help, leaving Sophia alone to be assaulted. Sophia later demands that Sikowitz be fired and accuses the prison of negligence for not training her properly.

Season Four[]

Sikowitz makes an appearance in "Work That Body For Me". It is unknown why she seemingly left Litchfield after this.
