Answer 1

Make a custom IValueConverter implementation:

public class DatetimeToStringConverter : IValueConverter
{
    #region IValueConverter implementation

    public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture)
    {
        if (value == null)
            return string.Empty;

        var datetime = (DateTime)value;
        //put your custom formatting here
        return datetime.ToLocalTime().ToString("g");
    }

    public object ConvertBack(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture)
    {
        throw new NotImplementedException(); 
    }

    #endregion
}

Then use it like that:
