Amber Nicole Benson is an American actress best known for playing Tara Maclay, Willow's girlfriend on Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Amber has also done some singing mainly in "Once More, With Feeling". She provided vocals for the songs "I've Got a Theory / Bunnies / If We're Together", "Under Your Spell" (her solo), "Under Your Spell/Standing" - reprise, "Walk Through the Fire" and "Where Do We Go From Here?". She also sang "Touch-a, Touch-a, Touch-a, Touch Me" on a live version of The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

“I just feel lucky to have grown up where I did because I think it gave me a nice base. Hollywood can really mess with your sense of self and I feel like coming from the South keeps me pretty grounded.”

―Amber Benson

Amber is currently dating fellow Buffy the Vampire Slayer co-star Adam Busch. Ironically, Busch played the character Warren Mears, who killed Benson's character in "Seeing Red".
