Erica Ehm (Erica Miechowsky, born September 30, 1961 in Montreal, Quebec) is best known as a pioneering video jockey at the Canadian cable television station MuchMusic. She began her television career by contributing to Musi-Video, a local rock and video show produced in Montreal.

Erica left MuchMusic after 10 years to concentrate on her songwriting career.

Since then, she has returned periodically to television, hosting or appearing in shows including "Yummy Mummy" on Life Network and Discovery Health in the U.S. among other countries, "Popstars - The One" (Global), "Real Life with Erica Ehm" (Life Network), "Power Play" (Discovery Channel Canada), "The Company" (TVOntario), "Nestlé Baby and You" (Rogers Cable) and "Science: From A to Ehm".

After having a child in 2000 with her partner Terry Moshenberg and another in 2003, Erica now directs much of her energy into parenting and runs the Yummy Mummy Club with a website at http://www.yummymummysite.com. She has written three stage musicals for the family market. After her first play, "Caillou's Big Party", sold out in theatres across North America, she was commissioned to write two other shows, "The Big Comfy Couch" and "Caillou's Big Book Club". She has also been contributing editor for "What's Up Kids" magazine.

Ehm is also a noted songwriter. Van Morrison, Tim Thorney, Cassandra Vasik, Lynne Taylor Donovan and Tom Jackson are a few of the artists who have recorded her songs. She has won three Canadian Country Music Awards and three SOCAN Awards. She also co-wrote the theme song for the animated film and series "Pippi Longstocking". Her song "Love Me Even More" was chosen as the theme for the feature "Some Things That Stay".

She had a modest acting career, appearing in Alfred Hitchcock Presents as a secretary, "" as television news anchor Rocky Crenshaw, as "Benita" in a stage play version of Brad Fraser's "Unidentified Human Remains and the True Nature of Love", as a madam in "Replikator" and as Vicky in "Jigsaw".
