BIOGRAPHY
Ever since the young age
of 4, Sarah has experienced an illustrious career in film and television.
After being discovered at at a local restaruant, Sarah was on her way to
her first film, "An Invasion of Privacy." In addition to being one of the
two regular hostesses of the TV talkshow, "Girl Talk", she has appeared
in the films: "Over the Brooklyn Bridge", "Funny Farm", and "High Stakes",
as well as a role which gained her a small, but loyal fanbase called "Swans
Crossing."
On February 24th 1993 Sarah
landed a role on the popular soap "All My Children", where she played Kendall
Hart, who was originally thought to be Erica Kane's assistant, but the
storyline later revealed that she was Erica's long-lost daughter who ended
up raising hell for her mother. She was nominated for a daytime emmy for
her perfomance. Although she lost, she was nominated again and won for
the category "Best Younger Actress." The day after her emmy acceptance,
Sarah made it public that she was going to leave the show and pursue fame
in film or television.
Perhaps the biggest breakthough
of Sarah's career came in 1996 when Sarah was given the role of Buffy Summers
in the popular television show, based on the movie by the same name, "Buffy
the Vampire Slayer " , the show didn't do very well in it's first season
(it ranked 100th out of 107 programs in the Nielson ratings), but by the
second season it shot up as high as 22, which is extremely high considering
the show is on the WB network(which is not as popular as the major networks
like NBC or ABC, etc.) making it the most popular show on the network.
In 1997, Sarah co-starred
alongside Jennifer Love Hewitt in the Kevin Williamson horror film "I Know
What You Did Last Summer" about a group of teenagers who are haunted by
the man that they hit in their car and ran from. It was released on October
17th , and became number 1 that weekend earning a profit in just 2 days.
Shortly after I Know What You Did Last Summer, Sarah flew down to Georgia
for the filming of another Kevin Williamson movie - Scream 2, which had
the largest ever opening for a December film and made more money in it's
first week than the rest of the top 10 combined. Sarah is currently set
to star alongside Ryan Phillipe, and Reese Witherspoon in the modern retelling
of Dangerous Liasons entitled "Cruel Intentions." Following Cruel Intentions,
Sarah is set to star in another movie entitled "Vanilla Fog" about a department
store executive who tries to resist falling in love with a a young woman
(Sarah) whom he beleives has magical powers after inheriting the restaraunt.
Starring alongside Sarah in this movie will be Sean Patrick Flanery.
On March 10th
1998, Sarah won a Blockbuster Entertainment Award in the category of "favorite
supporting actress in a horror movie" for her role in I Know What You Did
Last Summer, voted upon by the people.
