Throughout her career, she has won a total of 21 medals in international swimming competition including five gold medals, thirteen silver medals, and three bronze medals. She made her first Olympic appearance at the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games at the age of 14, and was the second-youngest Olympic medalist in American swimming history. Outside of her Olympic career, she has also had a successful career in modeling. She has appeared in FHM, the 2006 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition, and Playboy.

In 2012, she released an autobiography, In the Water They Can't See You Cry: A Memoir, where she discusses her personal struggles, her parent's divorce, and working through the pressures of being a perfectionist. Beard is a vegetarian and is married to photographer, Sacha Brown and the couple have two children, a boy, Blaise and a girl, Doone.
