Sarah Buxton played the impulsive, unpredictable, and scheming Annie Douglas. The resident "poor little rich girl" on "Sunset Beach," Buxton has received critical acclaim for her work as a daytime drama villain.

When Buxton was 15, a Hollywood manager "discovered" her in a supermarket. Previously a gymnast and Olympic hopeful, Buxton was already familiar with the regimented schedule of rehearsal and thus made a smooth transition from one performing art to another. Her first on-screen appearance was in a Coke commercial, and soon thereafter, she scored a role in the television pilot "Too Good to Be True."

Her additional television credits include playing Morgan DeWitt on the daytime drama The Bold and the Beautiful as well as guest-starring roles on "Baywatch"; "Walker, Texas Ranger"; "Platypus Man"; "Diagnosis Murder"; and "Silk Stalkings." Buxton's feature-film credits include "The Climb" with John Hurt, a leading role in "Listen," and roles in "Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead," "Less Than Zero" and "The Sure Thing."

She lives in Los Angeles. In her spare time, she enjoys practicing yoga and making pottery. Her birthday is March 23.
