A New York City native, Michelle Christine Trachtenberg was born on October 11, 1985, to Michael and Lana Trachtenberg. She also had an older sister named Irene, who studied at a middle school in Brooklyn before moving to Sherman Oaks, California, to attend Notre Dame High School.
Her very first commercial was for Wisk detergent, and she later appeared in commercials for a few other companies, such as Playskool. With her bright blue eyes, wide smile, and adorable curls, it’s no wonder she was the perfect child star.
On August 13, 2015, Trachtenberg referenced her time on set in a throwback Thursday post.
“I’ve always said my first job was a detergent commercial where I was just turning 4 (this is a Polaroid from the shoot that my mom took). Truth be told I was hired to be the baby of the biggest brand of diapers first, when I was 16 months old, but I didn’t like being told what to do.
“Old habits die hard! 😉 I quickly learned being on set is where I belong… Born to be an #actress.”
Things then took a huge turn for Trachtenberg in 1994, when she starred in the Nickelodeon series The Adventures of Pete & Pete alongside Michael Maronna and Danny Tamborelli.

More than two decades later, it seems that the show still hadn’t left her mind, as she described it as a project that was “way ahead of its time” and shouted out its “badass guest stars.”
