Name: Kristy McNichol

Claim To Fame: I'd have to say that Kristy's big break and probably the one she is most noted for is as Buddy in the ABC series "Family".

Another role that she is well-remembered for is that of Angel in the feature film, "Little Darlings" co-starring Tatum O'Neal and Matt Dillion.

She was also a regular on "Empty Nest."

Where Is She Now: Plagued by an anxiety disorder, Kristy retired from acting several years ago. She lives on the money she earned from TV and films.

"She didn't want the pressure of celebrity -- it didn't agree with her," says a friend and former publicist Max Green.

She went to school to become a beautician, but I believe she only did hair for a little while.

Rumor is she teaches acting at a private school in Los Angeles.

From everything that I´´ve read its well known that Kristy has Bipolar Illness(Manic-Deppression). That´´s one reason why she left acting.
