Melissa Sue Anderson – 58 Years Old

Melissa Sue Anderson made her debut as a child star. At first, she shot a few commercials, and then she started acting in TV series. Many of her roles are impressive. Melissa takes credit for portraying Charles and Caroline’s eldest daughter Mary Ingalls Kendall on the Western drama series Little House on the Prairie where she was nominated for an Emmy Award and received several other distinctions.

The actress continued to take on a number of projects after the show ended which all could have paid her off well enough to reflect well on her credit report, but she eventually seems to have vanished into obscurity to some degree. After some time away from the spotlight, she popped up again in 2010 to zealously promote her newly published autobiography. The audience was very pleasantly surprised at her comeback. They all expressed great support for her autobiography.
