My Take
Hayley Mills is one of those rare child stars who actually made it out the other side intact. Born in 1946 to Sir John Mills and writer Mary Hayley Bell, she broke through with Tiger Bay at 12, then won the Academy Juvenile Award for Disney's Pollyanna and dazzled in The Parent Trap. What gets me is how she kept reinventing herself, moving from movie sweetheart to serious stage work and earning a Theatre World Award decades later. Surviving fame that young and staying a working actress into your seventies takes a quiet toughness I deeply admire.
