Emma Caulfield, 29, was born and raised in San Diego. You might recognize her from her stint on Beverly Hills, 90210 as Brandon's girlfriend Susan, or even from her small role on General Hospital as nurse Lorraine. After those roles, Emma had put acting on the backburner to focus on college, receiving a degree in Psychology, but Buffy beckoned. She much prefers playing Anya the mortal, and says that with every new script, she prays that she doesn't see the words, "Anya gets her powers back" — although she wouldn't mind Anya getting her powers back so much, as long as she didn't have to get into the demon makeup. She stars in the feature film “Don’t Peek,” a psychological thriller. Though she loves her current job, she's not so sure that she wants to be acting 15 years from now, noting that the business is masochistic, and that an actor can never have true peace. Emma currently lives in Los Angeles.
