Emmy Award winning Sarah Michelle Gellar, now known as Sarah Michelle Prinze. She is one of Hollywood’s most versatile actresses, most commonly known for her role as Buffy in the Golden Globe nominated show, “Buffy the Vampire Slayer”. Gellar was born in New York City. She is the only child of Rosellen (nee Greenfield), a nursery school teacher, and Arthur Gellar, a garment worker. Both of her parents were Jewish, though Gellar’s family had a Christmas tree during the holidays while she was growing up. In 1984, when she was 7 years old, her parents divorced and she was brought up solely by her mother on the Upper East Side.
Eating in a local restaurant, she was discovered by an agent when she was 4 years old. Soon after she was making her first movie, An Invasion of Privacy (1983) (TV). Besides a long list of movies, she has also appeared in many TV commercials and on the stage. Her breakthrough came with TV-series “Swans Crossing” (1992). During 1997 she became known to the cinema audience when she appeared in two movies at the cinema I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997) and Scream 2 (1997). But she is arguably still most associated with her title role in the long-running TV series, “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” (1997).
