Sarah Galbraith Buxton (born March 23, 1965) is an American actress. She has appeared in films such as Lovelines (1984), The Sure Thing (1985) and Less Than Zero (1987), and well as guest starred in a number of television shows in early career. On television, Buxton is best known for playing villainous Annie Douglas Richards in the NBC soap opera, Sunset Beach from 1997 to 1999. She later played another soap villain, Morgan DeWitt, on The Bold and the Beautiful (2000–01, 2005).
Buxton was a competitive gymnast in her youth, until being "discovered" at the grocery store when she was about 15. In early 1980s, she began appearing on television and films. She guest-starred on Simon & Simon, 21 Jump Street, Who's the Boss?, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, China Beach and Walker, Texas Ranger. She also has appeared in a number of films, include Lovelines (1984), The Sure Thing (1985) and Less Than Zero (1987), Rock 'n' Roll High School Forever (1991), and Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead (1991).
Buxton is primarily known for her performance in the NBC daytime soap opera Sunset Beach, which aired from January 6, 1997 to December 31, 1999. Buxton was an original cast member and remained with the show for its entire run, playing the ever-plotting villain Annie Douglas Richards opposite Lesley-Anne Down and Sam Behrens. For her portrayal of Annie, Buxton was nominated in the category of "Outstanding villainess" at the 1998 Soap Opera Digest Awards. Justine Elias of The New York Times said Buxton and Anne Down showed signs of "becoming a classic matchup of battling soap opera vixens" in the respective roles of Annie and Olivia. Henry Mietkiewicz of the Toronto Star said that Annie "crowed gracelessly" during her scenes and opined that Buxton had a tendency to "shrilly overplay" Annie.
