* The game is pub style so looking up the answers, using friends/family/co-workers, etc. for help,  is not allowed.

Not an official rule: If you have no clue, feel free to come up with an intentionally funny answer. Although you won't get credit for a correct answer, you'll get a thumbs up from me for originality, execution, and showmanship. What can I say, I love to be entertained and I'll take it any way I can get it!

Friday Funday Trivia: Former Child Stars II

Below are 3 montages containing grown up photos of former child stars. You have to correctly identify the child star. I'm going to be a little lenient on this quiz. If you are unable to come up with the performer's name, you can still earn half credit if you can at least identify one of their famous roles. For example, if I posted a photo of Eve Plumb and you couldn't recall her name, something along the lines of the following would be acceptable:

That's the lady who played Jan on The Brady Bunch
