Eliza Patricia Dushku, born in Watertown, Massachusetts, is the American actress who portrayed Faith Lehane on Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel.

Though initially planned as only a five episode role, the Slayer with a troubled past became so popular that she stayed on for the entirety of the third season and returned for a two-part appearance in season four, after which the remainder of her original story arc was played out as part of the first season of the Buffy the Vampire Slayer spinoff series Angel. Repentant and rededicated, Faith returned as a heroine in a number of further episodes of Angel, in the last five episodes of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and the Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Eight comic.

Dushku holds the distinction of being the only actress, other than Sarah Michelle Gellar (and Gellar's stunt doubles), to portray Buffy on the series when her character switched bodies with her in the episode "Who Are You".

She has appeared in such films as Bring it On (which also starred another Buffy the Vampire Slayer actress, Clare Kramer, who portrayed Glory), Wrong Turn, True Lies, The New Guy, Soul Survivors, and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. She also starred as Tru Davies in the short-lived TV series Tru Calling.

She starred on her own TV series Dollhouse which was created by Joss Whedon and guest starred Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel stars such as Amy Acker, Alexis Denisof, and Summer Glau.

She starred in Batman: Year One as the voice of Catwoman in 2011 as well as Noah's Ark: The New Beginning and Locked In, both released in 2012.
