Mara Wilson
As a child, Mara Wilson proved her worth as an actress. She was excellent in various projects such as Mrs. Doubtfire, Miracle on 34th Street, and Matilda. However, she decided to focus on writing and philanthropy instead. She wrote a book about what her childhood was like. Right now, she is working for a not-for-profit company called Publicolor. It is based in New York.
Danica McKellar
Perhaps you remember Danika McKellar as Winnie Cooper in The Wonder Years. This lovely lady is also brilliant. Did you know that she earned a science degree from UCLA and graduated with top honors? She has written various books like “Math Doesn’t Suck.” Aside from that, she brought math to a wider audience with a TV program called Math Bites. How cool is that?
