T.F.T.D. #23 (Where They Are Now?)

Ever wonder what your favorite childhood stars are up to now? Flipping through the channels this morning, I caught one of my favorite childhood shows on and, since I hadn't heard anything about them since their screen days, immediately wondered where these actors are at now. Here are a couple: :)

Mindy, Mork and Mindy (Pam Dawber): No longer acting, but is involved in Big Brothers, Little Sisters and "EyeQ" (assists reading speed and comprehension). Dawber is married with two sons, Sean and Ty.





Punky Brewster (Soleil Moon Frye): Still working in the film industry (even directing), has been married for about 10 years and just had her second daughter, Jagger Blue (first daughter: Poet, talk about them names! Well, her name is Sun Moon).


Nicholas Martin in McGee and Me! (Joseph Dammann): Still acting and working in reality T.V. production (including The Bachelor--strange to think of him doing that ;) ).



Mr. Belvedere (Christopher Hewitt): He died in 2001 from complications with diabetes. :( However, I am currently reading Julie Andrew's amazing biography and was very surprised to find out from this research that she and Hewitt both debuted on Broadway together (My Fair Lady, 1956)! :)

Webster (Emmanuel Lewis): This childhood star brought his own record label, Emmanuel Lewis Entertainment, to the scene in 2000 and is now jumping back into acting (Doesn't Texas Ever End).






Vici the Robot, Small Wonder (Tiffany Brissette): No longer acting, Brissette, enjoys horseback riding and is a counselor in San Diego for children and young adults.




Ted McGriff, Hey Dude! (David Lascher): Still acting and is married with two kids.








Michelle, Full House (Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen): J/K!






Stephanie Tanner, Full House (Jodie Sweetin): Sweetin is no longer acting, but is excited about teaching. Recently married (2007), Sweetin just had her first child, a baby girl named Zoie.
