Mara Wilson
We all know how talented Mara Wilson when it comes to acting. As a young girl, she impressed everyone in films like Mrs. Doubtfire, Matilda, and A Simple Wish. While she enjoyed the time she spent in the industry, she knew she did not want to continue acting. Instead, she chose to be a writer and philanthropist. In 2016, she even published a book that detailed her experiences as a child actress! At the present, she works for Publicolor, a non-profit that offers disadvantaged teens the opportunity to access the arts.

Danica McKellar
Do you remember the lovely Winnie Cooper from The Wonder Years? She was played by none other than Danica McKellar! Apparently, the actress was academically gifted and graduated summa cum laude from UCLA. You might be surprised to hear that math is her passion and she has actually written a number of math books. Aside from this, she also runs Math Bites, her very own math show. How amazing is that?
