Dakota Culkin had the famous name, but didn't want the fame.
Macaulay's sister, who was killed in a traffic accident, was "a real sweetheart, a really good kid," says Dana Schroeder, a director who recently worked with the one-time art production assistant on an independent film Lost Soul.
"Dakota was very humble," Schroeder tells PEOPLE. "She didn't want to get in front of the cameras, she wanted to work behind the scenes."
Culkin, 29, was accidentally struck by a car in L.A. Tuesday night, and died the next day. No crime was committed, police say.
