Dr. Ellen "Ellie" Sattler was a paleobotanist invited by John Hammond to to Jurassic Park during the events of the first book and first film as well as Jurassic Park III. She was twenty-four during the Isla Nublar Incident and darkly tanned most likely due to sun exposure during her digs with Alan Grant.

[edit] Jurassic Park (novel)
Ellie Sattler was a graduate student under Dr. Alan Grant during the Nublar incident. She was a paleobotanist, a scientist that studies prehistoric plants. In the first novel, Jurassic Park, Ellie never had a relationship with Dr. Grant and she had already been engaged. However, in the second novel Ed James found out that she had something with Dr. Grant.
Ellie was asked to come to the park by John Hammond, hoping she would endorse it. Sattler agreed, and was, like Grant, originally thrilled with the prospect of Jurassic Park. However, she too saw the dangers of mixing dinosaurs with humans, mostly after discovering the staff at Jurassic Park had paid no attention to the plant life around them. They placed poisonous plants around the pool and other public places, showing their ignorance. During the tour, Sattler helped solve the problem as to what was ailing the park’s Stegosaurs. She then took the jeep with Gerry Harding and Donald Gennaro to the Visitor’s Center. She helped Harding take care of Ian Malcolm’s injuries after he was rescued. During the final power outage, Sattler used herself as bait and distracted a number of Velociraptors trying to get into the Safari Lodge. After Lex Murphy restored power, she accompanied Grant and Gennaro to the raptor nest to document the number of animals that survived. She escaped the island alive, and later married a scientist at Berkeley and had two children. (mentioned in the lost world novel).

[edit] Jurassic Park III
Since the first film, Ellie ended her relationship with Alan Grant and began a relationship with Mark Degler, an employee of the State Department who she subsequently married. The Degler's had two children, whom they lived with in Washington DC. Although their romance had ended, both Degler nee Sattler and Grant remained very close friends. Ellie remaining very loyal to Allan telling him that he is still the best in his field and that he can call her about anything at anytime. Despite them no longer being in a relationship she appears to still care deeply for Grant as a result of their long history together.
