American actress, author, singer, best known for playing Blair Warner on TV series The Facts of Life. She once said "At five feet three, I'm vertically challenged," a height she mentioned on twitter - "5'3" - when someone thought she was 5ft 6.
It usually takes them [fans] about five minutes to realize I'm not Blair. For one thing, I'm shorter than Blair...I wear very, very high heels on the show.
