27. Ariana Richards
Ever since the late ’80s, Ariana Richards was a child actress worth watching. She appeared in such films as Tremors, Prancer, and most notably, Jurassic Park. She received much positive attention for her work, racking up several Young Artist Awards along the way. However, she ultimately decided to pursue a different type of art.
Specifically, Ariana Richards became a full-time painter. In 2001, she graduated from Skidmore College with a degree in Fine Arts and Drama in hand. She went on to continue her education at Art Center College of Design in Pasadena. Today, she keeps creating as an artist but has also once more begun to make appearances as an actress from time to time.
