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.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

RFK Racing has improved ever since Brad Keselowski joined the race team at the start of the NextGen car era. Keselowski and Chris Buescher have both entered victory lane and have multiple victories over the last 36 races. However, could RFK Racing bring on another driver? According to a recent report, the NASCAR team might need to find a driver for a third car.
Sports Business Journal’s Adam Stern mentioned Ryan Preece when talking about the possibility of RFK Racing expanding to a third car for the 2025 NASCAR season. Preece currently drives for Stewart-Haas Racing and remains the only Cup Series driver for the organization not to have a home secured next season.
The NASCAR organization only has two charters and would need to acquire another charter. Rick Ware Racing could be a potential option as they have a technical alliance with RFK Racing. With only one full-time driver, Rick Ware Racing could lease the charter. There will be plenty of movement over the next few months, and it might include RFK Racing.
