Sarah Michelle Gellar
Sarah Michelle Gellar scored minor parts in a few films in the late ’80s but it wasn’t until her major role on ABC’s “All My Children” in 1992 that Gellar’s career started to take off. Gellar played the daughter of Erica Kane, one of the most well known characters in soap opera history. As the evil Kendall Hart, Gellar earned a Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Young Actor. Gellar left the show in 1995 and went on to star in the cult-favorite show “Buffy the Vampire Slayer.” In 2011, the New York native retuned to “All My Children” but not as Kendall; she played a patient at Pine Valley Hospital.
