Tanya was a young Caucasian woman living in the U.S. state of Virginia during the years following the collapse of society as a result of a zombie apocalypse.

Tanya's fellow sister-wives included Amber, Frankie, and Sherry. (Walking Dead: Sing Me a Song)
Life under Negan's rule was difficult, and Tanya's responsibilities included satisfying all of Negan's needs, both domestically and sexually. Tanya and Frankie tried to trick Eugene Porter into concocting a suicide pill, which they told him was for Amber, but in truth, was actually intended for Negan. Eugene made the pill, but figured out their plan on his own and refused to risk his own neck by helping them any further. Leaving Eugene's quarters, Tanya called him a coward.
