*Sharon Esther Spitz is the main character of the Braceface TV series. She was originally voiced by Alicia Silverstone, until season 3 when she was succeeded by Stacey DePass.

Sharon is an attractive teenage girl with fair skin, long blonde hair with a pastel blue hairclip, green eyes and silver braces. Mainly, Sharon is seen wearing navy blue denim jeans and a pastel blue midriff top with white lines which shows her belly button. In occasions, she wears navy denim jeans and a bright pink shirt with emerald necklace and sometimes a navy denim jacket.

Sharon is a sweet, girly, happy-go-lucky, passionate, clumsy, ditzy, honest and responsible teenage girl. As with most teenage girls who are in middle school and transitioning their way into high school, Sharon wants to be able to fit herself somewhere within the crowd. Despite wanting such, she greatly values her circle of friends and would do anything for them. Though there are some moments where Sharon may take things too far or get a little ahead of herself, she learns from her lessons in the end and makes sure that she doesn't let it happen again. When having to deal with Nina and her bullying antics throughout the series, Sharon always keeps her head high and doesn't allow her words or actions get the best of her.

As the middle child in her family, along with five pets (two dogs and three cats), whose names are: Pigger, Sampson, Moishe, Roxie, and Lawrence, Sharon's family members include: her father Richard Spitz, her mother Helen Spitz, and her two brothers, Adam Spitz and Josh Spitz. In Angels Among Us, it's revealed that Sharon and her brothers have Jewish ancestry through their father's side of the family.

Despite her klutzy nature and not being as into sports as others, particularly Maria (who has called Sharon a "sports wimp" in many episodes), Sharon's been shown to be quite capable of handling very demanding, physical exertions. Alden calls Sharon "the best dancer he knows," considering her to be a better dancer than Maria.

Sharon is quite an accomplished student in both English and creative writing. Adam even says it is easy for her to win English assignment awards[8] and their mother, Helen, says that Sharon has always consistently gotten A's in English.[7] However, her grasp of science and math is particularly weak by comparison, barely scraping through with a C average.[9][10]

But if she really applies herself, she is capable of excelling, since she worked out a complicated mathematic proof in the space of an hour.[9] Sharon has a high level of skill at cooking and preparing food. Josh, in particular, is fond of her culinary creations, specifically, her oatmeal cookies.

Since her father, Richard, is well versed in the culinary arts, she may have learned these skills from him. Sharon is good at driving vehicles. In just half an hour, she became a better driver than Adam, who had at least a year of practical experience. She did crash the car though, but only because she was unfamiliar with which pedals to press. Even so, she had enough skill to control the crash, so nobody was injured. The car was even capable of being driven after the crash without any ill effects on its act.*
