Mara Wilson

Don’t recognize the one and only Mara Wilson? Well, then you missed out on some of the best movies of the ’90s! In just a few short years, Wilson managed to star in some of the biggest films of all time, including Mrs. Doubtfire, Miracle on 34th Street, and Matilda. But, it seems that a lifetime of acting was simply not in the cards for Wilson.
After Wilson left Hollwyood, she earned a degree in English and now works extensively as a writer. She’s even released a memoir, Where Am I Now?: True Stories of Girlhood and Accidental Fame. Fun fact: the former actress is also the cousin of political commentator Ben Shapiro. Small world!
