Does anybody know what she's doing these days?

Same thing all the child from the 80s and 90s are doing. Nothing.

She recently got married. She still does theater. She recently did something, I just can't remember what. She was also in "THe Dead" at the Belasco starring Blair Brown.

Daisy was one of the greatest child stars of all time!
I guess she just went back to being a normal kid.
I wish her all the best!

I think it's really interesting how she won a Tony Award at the age. She definitely didn't follow the same path she would have if she won as anadult like most. I don't think well see her anymore but she may suprise us. It's intesting how many Tony winners out there can have a hard time finding work too and still be in regional forver. hmm.

she was on The It factor a couple of years ago that aired on Bravo. It was the reality series about actors. She was really cool on it. At one point they were asking where her Tony Award was and she said, "it's just up here on this shelf...it's all dusty." She was just struggling like all the other actors on that show.

What is the It Factor? She was obviously struggling? Wow.

She went to NYU in 1999 because my daughter who was going to NYU at the time was supposed to room with her that fall in a dorm near Chinatown. She met her and really liked her then my daughter decided to stay in Michigan and go to school at University of Michigan. My daughter did go see her in The Dead and did not like the play very much but did enjoy seeing Daisy.
I saw her in The It Factor and hope she can continue her career in some capacity.

Did she graduate from NYU? What did she study?

My daughter would have been a sophomore and I'm not sure exactly which year Daisy was in and I don't know if she graduated(sorry I don't know much). I will ask my daughter if she remembers what her major was. I don't think it was theater since she had already won the Tony. I think she was only going part time because she was in rehearsals for The Dead.

Okay, how old would she be now?

[bwayaddict]

Posted: 7/13/04 at 10:35pm

Well my daughter is 25 so I think she is close to her age.

I saw that Daisy is to be in the film of Tony and Tina's Wedding.

"I think it's really interesting how she won a Tony Award at the age. She definitely didn't follow the same path she would have if she won as an adult like most."

I disagree with that. If anyone read that story in the NY Times aroung Tony time about how the Tonys dont have that big an effect. There are a lot of actors out there who have won Tonys and are struggling to get a job. I read a quote from Scott Wise who won a Tony for Jerome Robins and he said one day he was a Tony winning actor and the next day the only work he could get was playing Spiderman at his kids birthday party.

25 years old??? I saw her in SG, no way is she just 5 years younger than I. I must've been 20 when I saw SG...

Daisy is 23 now I believe and I think she said she went to NYU for business.

Daisy went to Gallatin at NYU for something related to music therapy but disliked the school and didn't finish.
