It was in Buffy the Vampire Slayer when I got to see first-hand Michelle Trachtenberg as Buffy's little sister Dawn. Now as she is full grown-up, I can't see traces of a young girl anymore but a hot and sexy vamp. Born October 11, 1985 to actress-turned-puppeteer mother Lana and ATT field engineer Michael, she grew up along her older sister Irene.
