- Iyari Limon was born in Guadalajara, Mexico, but in her infancy she and her parents made Southern California their new home. Although English is her primary language, she's fluent in Spanish from being raised in a Spanish- speaking household. She's also semi-fluent in French, and being of Spanish, French, German, and Mexican-Indian descent, it seems only right that she is able to speak these languages. She is very well-traveled and has lived in Australia, France, Mexico, and England.
She began her acting career in 1995 with a guest appearance on an "ER" episode, followed by other significant guest roles on various TV shows, including as a guest regular in 2000 on the MTV anthology "Undressed." Her biggest break came in 2002 when she was offered the part of Kennedy, one of the 'Slayer Potentials' on "Buffy the Vampire Slayer." Because of supportive fan mail, she appeared in the last 13 episodes of "Buffy"'s 7th and final season. Being the "Scoobie Gang's" latest addition has brought Iyari a whole new fame; she now makes personal appearances at conventions around the world.
Most recently, she guest starred in the 2004 premiere episode of the Emmy-winning series "Without a Trace." She also appeared in numerous television commercials such as SBC, Always, Toyota, and Dr. Pepper. In 2001, she hosted Radio Disney's world tour 2001, traveling to all of the major cities in the U.S.- IMDb mini biography by: Anonymous
