working on a commercial for Whisk Detergent. She has done over 100
national commercials in the States. She landed her first major role in
Nickelodeon TV show, Pete & Pete. From there she has also starred in
Nickelodeon film, Harriet the Spy and more recently played Penny
opposite Mathew Broderick in Inspector Gadget. Daytime television fans will remember Trachtenberg from her challenging role as the autistic Lily Montgomery on "All My Children," at which time the drama also starred Sarah Michelle Gellar.
For the past four years, Trachtenberg has been an active spokesperson for Kmart Kids Race Against Drugs,
R.A.D.D., DARE America, The Starlight Foundation and many other organizations and charities. Trachtenberg's contributions to the fight against drugs earned her the prestigious responsibility of representing the youth of America at CNN's headquarters in Atlanta, where she helped President Clinton launch "The Coalition for a Drug Free America" campaign.
In her spare time, Michelle enjoys swimming, rollerblading, ice-skating, bicycling and writing short stories.
Dawn Summers
Dawn Summers is little sister to Buffy Summers and youngest
daughter to Joyce Summers. Dawn was brought into being by some monks who
had a mystical device called The Key, and to protect it they changed the
time line and the present and sent it to Buffy in the form of a sister.
So that Buffy would protect it. When Dawn found out the truth about
herself she didn't take it very well but soon adjusted. When she found
out she had really only been alive for a couple of months. Dawn being
The Key meant her blood would open the doorway to several different
dimensions. A god called Glory wanted to return home and so her blood
needed to be spilt on a certain night. Dawn was made from Buffy, Buffy's
blood, so Buffy took the fall for Dawn, leaving Dawn alive and well.
Buffy was resurrected and after Joyce died Buffy took the role as
Buffy's mother and big sister. Dawn is now attending the new Sunnydale
High School.
With Sunnydale High directly over the hellmouth things soon go from bad
to worse in Sunnydale. With floods of potential slayers coming to
Sunnydale, Dawn is almost mistaken for one of those potentials. But
she's not and carries on living her normal life, well as normal as you
can get. In the final battle Buffy attempts to send her sister away, but
her sister comes back wanting to fight and survives.
