Amber Nicole Benson (born January 8, 1977) is an American writer, author, director, producer, and actress. She is best known for her role as Tara Maclay on the TV series Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but has also directed, produced and starred in her own films Chance (2002) and Lovers, Liars & Lunatics (2006). She also co-directed the film Drones with fellow Buffy cast member Adam Busch.
Benson was born January 8, 1977 in Birmingham, Alabama, to Edward Benson, a psychiatrist, and Diane Benson. She has a younger sister, Danielle, who is an artist. She had a mixed Christian (mother) and Jewish (father) upbringing.
As a child, Benson studied music and dance, and performed in the Birmingham Children's Ballet, as well as in local theater. She attended high school (one of her classmates being Joey Fatone) in Orlando, Florida after her family moved there, in part to help Amber pursue acting opportunities, the most prominent of which was an unsold television series called Kids' News, in which Amber was to have been one of two main anchors. The Bensons then relocated to Los Angeles, and Amber began to very quickly land roles in films and on television.

Lesbian relationships had been addressed on US television before, but none made a greater impact in the early 2000s than Buffy’s Willow Rosenberg and Tara Maclay. Though revered and heralded as TV’s first long-term lesbian relationship, they were not immune to the BYG trope, and Tara’s death would echo years later with the loss of Lexa. In a TV landscape that offered few lesbian characters, Tara Maclay was a beacon for many women who were desperately searching for representation in the nineties. Amber’s portrayal of the quiet yet powerful witch continues to endure and cross generational boundaries; no matter how old we are, we can all find a piece of ourselves in Tara Maclay.

I know you think I'm just giving you a hard time
But I just think I should really take my time
'Cause my heart's been broken
He ripped it up, he let me down
My scars are open
So I was hoping you might be different
Tell me that you're different, babe, babe
Tell me what's on your mind
Tell me you got the time
Tell me if I'm on your mind
Tell me like all the time
'Cause I gotta be for sure
You won't never let me go
'Cause I'm giving you a chance at my love
Giving you a chance at my love
Giving you a chance at my love
My love, my love
I'm giving you a chance at my love
Giving you a chance at my love
Giving you a chance at my love
My love, my love
I hope you know I'm not tryna make this hard
But I don't know if I can let down my guard
'Cause he hurt me, baby
He let me down, he let me while
My heart was breaking
So I'm just taking my time to be sure
You're not like the one before
So tell me
Tell me what's on your mind
Tell me you got the time
Tell me if I'm on your mind
Tell me like all the time
'Cause I gotta be for sure
You won't never let me go
'Cause I'm giving you a chance at my love
Giving you a chance at my love
Giving you a chance at my love
My love, my love
I'm giving you a chance at my love
Giving you a chance at my love
Giving you a chance at my love
My love, my love
Every time I think about you
You got me going crazy
'Cause I don't wanna be without you
So please don't leave me, baby
Every time I think about you
You got me going crazy
'Cause I don't wanna be without you
So please don't leave me, baby
'Cause I'm giving you a chance at my love
Giving you a chance at my love
Giving you a chance at my love
My love, my love
I'm giving you a chance at my love
Giving you a chance at my love
Giving you a chance at my love
