USA's hit show White Collar is about undercover agents, but its newest star Hilarie Burton let PIX Morning News in on a few secrets today when she stopped by to chat with us about her latest role.
Burton plays Sara Ellis, an insurance investigator looking to settle a score with Neal Caffrey (Matt Bomer), a conman who now helps the FBI catch criminals. This woman from Neal's past will spend six episodes on the show starting next Tuesday, August 10.
Hilarie worked as a video jockey on Total Request Live before landing her trademark role on CW drama One Tree Hill, where she starred as the artistic and emotional Peyton Sawyer for six seasons.
