Kim Richards

What strikes me about Kim Richards is how completely she owned the child-star era of 1970s American TV and film. I grew up associating her with that run of Disney adventures, Escape to Witch Mountain and its sequel, plus her turns in Nanny and the Professor and Little House on the Prairie. That's a remarkably dense résumé for someone barely into her teens. I find child performers fascinating precisely because the public meets them so young and then keeps watching as they grow up, which is a strange kind of pressure. The New York birth and the long arc into television personality work tell me she never really stepped out of the spotlight.
