Whatever Happened to Our Favorite Child Stars of the ’50s, ’60s, and ’70s?

    Pop culture in the ’50s, ’60s, and ’70s was heavily influenced by several TV shows and films. Do you ever wonder what happened to the kids from The Brady Bunch or The Partridge Family?

    Quinn Cummings

    Quinn Cummings was launched into stardom at the mere age of 10 with the titular role of precocious Lucy. Bored of the fame, she quit acting in the early ‘90s. In 2005, she started a blog titled “The QC Report” and has come out with three memoirs since. Motherhood inspired her to create the HipHugger baby-carrying sling.

    Lauren Chapin

    Lauren Chapin’s character in the 1954 sitcom Father Knows Best, Kathy Anderson, may have had a stable family life, but it wasn’t the case for the young actress. According to her biography, she had an extremely difficult childhood. After the show was canceled, Lauren couldn’t find any more jobs. She had worked as a dog groomer and a stewardess to bear her expenses by the early ‘80s. These days, she runs a live version of the only show she did, which conducts paid performance on various events.
