Actor Evolution: Mae Whitman

Mae's one of those people that you've seen and probably appreciated without ever knowing who she actually was. This chick is all over the place and since her role in Scott Pilgrim, she's taken on a ton of live-action comedy. I'm always delighted when she randomly pops up in something I'm watching or I see her name in the credits. Maybe you are, too?
