Buffy the Vampire Slayer

Michelle Trachtenberg

American television and film actress. She is perhaps best known for playing Dawn Summers in the television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer for the show's final three seasons.
Trachtenberg was born in New York City, the younger of two daughters of Lana, a bank manager, and Michael Trachtenberg, a fiber-optics engineer
Her father is from Germany and her mother was born in Russia; Trachtenberg can speak Russian fluently

One of the most surprising elements of last night's episode of Gossip Girl was Georgina Sparks' appearance at the end, in which she nonchalantly called Dan to say that she resolved the Poppy Lifton situation and would see him at NYU in the fall.

Now that filming of Gossip Girl is over and done with for the season, Michelle Trachtenberg is enjoying life back in Los Angeles.

Enjoying a leisurely day out with a pal, the 23-year-old actress was spotted having lunch at the trendy Toast eatery before causing some serious damage on her credit card during a post-meal shopping spree at Milk.

Michelle recently made headlines after lavishing praise on her former Buffy co-star Sarah Michelle Gellar, insisting the pregnant actress will make an “extraordinary mom.”
