Sarah began her acting career at age 4 when she was discovered by an agent while eating in a local restaurant. Three weeks later she was on the set of her first film, An Invasion of Privacy. This chance discovery was to lead to a professional career which has lasted 24 of her 28 years of life. In addition to having been one of the two regular hostesses of the TV talk show, "Girl Talk," Sarah is a veteran of TV, film, and stage. She has appeared with … More href="http://www.tv.com/people/matthew-broderick/" target="_blank">Matthew Broderick and Eric Stoltz in "The Widow Claire" at the Circle in the Square theater, and had a feature film open in which she co-starred with Sally Kirkland and Robert Lupone. She has appeared on Spenser: For Hire, Love, Sidney, The David Letterman Show and The Regis Philbin Show. She has done over 100 commercials and is a Wilhelmina Model. She has also appeared in Crossbow which she filmed in France and Switzerland. Sarah played Molly in the original cast of Neil Simon's Jake's Women and young Jacqueline Bouvier in the award winning NBC mini-series A Woman Named Jackie. Sarah started to gain a small, but loyal, fanbase when she played the lead role of Sydney Rutledge in the teen soap opera, Swan's Crossing.
On February 24th 1993, Sarah Michelle began work on the set of All My Children. She was nominated for a Daytime Emmy in 1994 and, although she lost, she was nominated again in 1995 and won in the Younger Leading Actress category. Although she had given the producers 6 months notice of her decision to leave the show, she made her decision public the day after the Emmy win. After 2 ½ years, Sarah left the set of AMC and moved to California to seek new fame in films or TV.
In 1996, Sarah was picked as the lead of a new series called Buffy the Vampire Slayer based on the movie by the same name. Warner Brothers bought 13 episodes of the show, and although ratings of the pilot were the highest ever of any of the WB lineup, it ranked 100th out of 107 programs in the Nielson ratings. Warner Brothers renewed the show for another 22 episodes which began airing September 15th, 1997.
In June of 1997, Sarah finished shooting I Know What You Did Last Summer which stars her and Jennifer Love Hewitt as teens who try to cover up a hit and run. It was released on October 17th and became number one that weekend, earning a profit in just two days. Shortly after filming IKWYDLS, Sarah flew down to Atlanta, GA to film Scream 2, which had the largest December opening of a film and made more money in it's first weekend than the other top 9 films combined.
Sarah next took a break from the horror genre to film Cruel Intentions, Simply Irresistible and Harvard Man.
On March 10, 1998, Sarah won a Blockbuster Entertainment Award in the Best Supporting Actress - Horror category for her role in I Know What You Did Last Summer.
On August 12th, 1999, Sarah signed a contract with Maybelline to become the first celebrity spokeswoman since Lynda Carter in the late 70's, and can be seen in television and print advertising for the makeup company.
The new millennium has been very favorable to Sarah so far. In 2000, she won a few awards given out by the Teen Choice Awards and the MTV Movie awards.
2001 proved to be a great year for her personal and professional lives. First, she earned a nomination in the Best Performance by an Actress in a TV-Series - Drama category in the Golden Globe Awards. Then she became engaged to Freddie Prinze Jr. on her birthday in April. The Teen Choice Awards also honored Sarah that summer with an Extraordinary Achievement Award.
In 2002, Scooby Doo, the movie Sarah co-starred in with Freddie, Matt Lillard and Linda Cardellini, became a summer blockbuster earning a whopping $250 million worldwide. In June she co-hosted the MTV Movie Awards, which became the highest rated in the show's history. This year also marked the most memorable occasion in her personal life. On September 1, 2002, Sarah and Freddie exchanged their marriage vows in a private ceremony in Mexico. In October, Sarah was honored with a Woman of The Year Award by Glamour Magazine during their Annual Women of The Year Awards.
In 2003, after 7 successful seasons of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer", Sarah Michelle Gellar called it quits. She then focused on several projects, including Scooby Doo 2 and The Grudge, both of which were released in 2004. Sarah has decided to move on to movies but still looks back fondly on her years on Buffy. She had hoped to guest star on the spin-off Angel when her schedule cleared up, but the cancellation of that show in 2004 prevented it.
Sarah also enjoys rollerblading, ice skating, water skiing, and occasionally goes cliff diving. She was a competitive figure skater for 3 years and was ranked 3rd in the New York Sate regional competition. She has taken 5 years of Tae Kwon Do and is active in physical fitness. Sarah is an only child and considers herself a workaholic. She attended high school at Professional Children's School in New York and graduated two years early with a 4.0.
In 2011, Sarah returned to television on the CW series, Ringer. Sarah is not only serving as the main lead for the series, but is also one of three executive producers on the show.

To the members of the Sarah Michelle Gellar posting board, I am Hannah Pond, a third year Film and TV student at the University of Wales, Aberystwyth and am carrying out some research on the fabulous Sarah Michelle Gellar. Being a massive fan of her myself I am looking to find out other fans… More perspectives on Sarah and how they view her as a person and as an actress. I would be extremely grateful if you as a fan could take some time to fill out a few questions regarding your views on SMG and the roles she has played throughout her career. I will be taking the answers you give me and comparing them to those from a group I did a discussion with earlier this month. The main aim of my research is to find out if there are any differences and/ or similarities between the way different fans perceive Sarah and whether the roles she plays on the big and small screen have had an effect upon this image.

"Maybe We Can Get a Dog Instead?" did its best to flesh out Malcolm as a character, but it didn't really do anything to make him interesting or even unique from countless other addict characters we've seen on screen.

She has great talent in acting i loved her in Buffy and i love her now in Ringer i also loved her in Scooby Doo and that was a bad film (in my opinion). I would love to see her as Buffy again in a movie or something also she doesnt age she looked hot when she started filming Buffy and now she still is one of the hottest girls in the world in Ringer. I love you SMG.
She's one of my favorite actress'. I love her emotional scenes in Buffy, especially some of her deep crying scenes; I personally don't believe there's any actress on television that can top some of Sarah's best work. It's a shame that her movie career isn't what it should be, given that she has what it takes to make it!
Sarah Michelle Gellar is probably one the best actresses on the whole planet. She is funny, can kick ass and she is quite short(I am short myself), which makes me like her even more. I liked Sarah the most as Buffy Summers in Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I don't think anyone else can play Buffy like she does, she just crawled into the role and put on a fantastic performance. That is not the only role she did great. I also think she is marbles in those horror movies she made, though I'm not such a fan of The Grudge. But Even in that movie Sarah managed to play her role really good. If I had to summarize Sarah Michelle Gellar in one word, it would be fantastic!
I first heard about Sarah Michelle Gellar when I started to watch Buffy. I thought that she was great at playing the role of Buffy Summers aka the Slayer. The whole Buffy series wouldn't be the same without Sarah Michelle Gellar playing Buffy.
Even though I haven't seen the film I heard she was in the Grudge, a film I will hopefully never need to watch.
Then I saw her in Scooby-Doo one of my favourite films of all time. Right now while I write this review I am watching Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed on STV (ITV1.) I love the parts where Daphne starts to fight all the bad guys. Especially in the first film where she starts to fight the wrestler and in the second one when she is fighting the Dark Knight.
She has been in a lot of other things that I can't actually remember. I did hear that she has been in something called Robot Chicken, I don't know what that is but I don't think I'll be watching it any time soon.
But one day I read one of those "Where Are They Now?" things on the interenet and she was in it! I was shocked to see one of my favourite actresses on that kind of thing. I hope that she keeps on doing big things so that she isn't placed in that kind of category!
she inspritional and very talented and hott as welll.
she best know to play the perfect cjaracter off television history buffy the vampire slayer,also i luv the show i tryed to write a letter but didnt hear from her i am sad noww :( lol,great actress and sheee better then fred prince but i could be the ideal husband as if dont blame a teenager dreaming lol,her films are gud and she sexy and the only actrice that i know has a good fashion sence did i tell you that she sexyyyy.i luv buffy the vampire slayer she was amazingggg
