WHERE ARE THEY NOW: ANDREA MCARDLE (WENDY, SEARCH FOR TOMORROW)

At age 8, she got the role of a young daughter, Wendy, on the soap opera, "Search for Tomorrow," because she "eerily looked just like the mother."

"I'd had no acting training but loved the healthy competition and the social aspect," McArdle said. "This really started things up for me."

During her third year on the soap, she auditioned for "Annie" and they hired a good friend, Kristen Vigard, in the lead role and McArdle as a tough, street-smart orphan.

Vigard went on to originate the role of Morgan on Guiding Light.
