Like her co-star Sarah Michelle
Gellar, Alyson Hannigan has been on the showbiz treadmill since the age
of four. She is not a Willow-style wallflower, but an outgoing
professional who has grown up in the industry.
Alyson worked in commercials as a child and moved to LA when she was eleven
in the hope of carving a career in TV and film. Her breakthrough was in
'My Stepmother Is An
Alien', playing Dan Aykroyd's misunderstood
daughter, Jessie. One of her co-stars was a certain Seth
Green. Their
paths crossed again on the sitcom 'Free Spirit'.
Other notable appearances were in
'Picket Fences', 'Touched By An Angel', and as one of Becky's friends in
'Roseanne'. The success of 'Buffy' has raised her profile even higher.
After the feature film 'Dead Man on Campus', her latest starring role is
in 'American Pie', a hit bad-taste comedy. She does things that Willow
wouldn't...
