They all handled their childhood celebrity differently. Lee Aaker, Mary Badham, Baby Peggy, Sonny Bupp, Ted Donaldson, Edith Fellows, Gary Gray, Jimmy Hunt, Eilene Janssen, Marcia Mae Jones, Sammy McKim, Roger Mobley, Gigi Perreau, Jeanne Russell, Frankie Thomas, Beverly Washburn, Johnny Whitaker, and Jane Withers are among those interviewed. They talk candidly about their experiences on and off the set, the people they worked with, and what they did after their careers ended. The pros and cons of being a child actor and the effects that it had on them later in life are discussed at great length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"McFarland \u0026 Company","offers":[{"title":"Growing Up on the Set: Interviews with 39 Former Child Actors of Classic Film and Television | Tom Goldrup | Paperback | 9780786412549 | Used: Very Good | Back Stacks B 1777443","offer_id":49765833244824,"sku":"1777443","price":38.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/61-96pyQwgL.jpg?v=1787970996","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/growing-up-on-the-set-interviews-with-39-former-child-actors-of-classic-film-and-television","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
