Danielle Brisebois

At the age of seven, as the smallest orphan in the hit Broadway musical Annie, Danielle Brisebois garnered attention. Although she’d appeared in a feature film, The Premonition in 1976, it wasn’t until after she became known for Annie in 1977 that she began landing regular onscreen roles. In 1978, she was cast as Stephanie on the long-running hit series All in the Family, then the spin-off, called Archie Bunker’s Place, from 1979 to 1983. She received a Golden Globe nomination for her work on the series. At age 14, she was cast on Knots Landing for one season before making guest appearances on a number of shows. As the roles petered out during her late teens, she turned to a music career, writing songs with Gregg Alexander, including one that was nominated for an Academy Award in 2015 from the movie Begin Again. Still working as a successful songwriter, Danielle is happily married and has twin daughters.
