Hilarie Burton was born in Sterling, Virginia, July 1st, 1982. After graduating from high school, she went on to study at New York University, switching later to Fordham University. While working as a video jockey on MTV?s Total Request Live, she was offered a small part on Dawson?s Creek. Originally, she had been slated to appear as a guest host only on MTV, but when the producers decided to let her take on a lengthier position, it changed her life for the better and set her acting career in motion. This tiny part was noticed by someone and she then found herself playing Peyton Sawyer on One Tree Hill in 2003, a role she continues to the present day. She began working on the big screen in the movie Our Very Own in 2005 and is also in three movies released in 2007, Solstice, The List and Normal Adolecscent Behavior. While still very young, Burton is already married, to Ian Prange, an assistant director for One Tree Hill. The happy couple lives in Wilmington, North Carolina. Burton continues to work on One Tree Hill and has a new movie coming out in the near future, titled The Sacrifice, based on a Robert Whitlow novel.
