Hollywood child stardom has taken its toll on many actors through the decades. Lani O'Grady, for one, found fame in the 1970s on the TV family series, Eight is Enough. O'Grady followed in the footsteps of her brother, actor Don Grady, an original Mouseketeer and member of another popular TV family show: My Three Sons. Their mother, Mary B. Grady, was a talent agent who represented several child actors. But Lani, who would also eventually become an agent, died in 2001 just one week before what would have been her 47th birthday.

My first racing love, the thing that got me into going fast, was rally. I'd sit at my parent's computer as a kid, wait for our modem to dial up, wait again for the video to fully load, and then watch a 30-second clip of WRC or Baja, and then do it all over again. Going fast along wooded trails, snow-packed logging roads, and the open deserts just got my heart pumping.
