Executive summary: Dawn Summers on Buffy Michelle Trachtenberg played Buffy's mystically-created little sister on Buffy the Vampire Slayer. She had worked with Sarah Michelle Gellar several years earlier on All My Children, and Gellar recommended Trachtenberg for the Buffy role.

As a TV kid, she played Iggy Pop's daughter on Nickelodeon's The Adventures of Pete & Pete, and was nannied by space alien Bronson Pinchot in Meego. As an adult, she has a recurring role as the pop star Celeste on HBO's Six Feet Under. In movies, young Trachtenberg played the title role in Harriet the Spy and Penny in Matthew Broderick's Inspector Gadget. More recently, Trachtenberg made out with her own fictitious brother in Eurotrip, did double toe loops in Ice Princess, and helped Joseph Gordon-Levitt figure himself out in Mysterious Skin.
