Where Are They Now: Stage acting, writing, directing
Mara Wilson rose to prominence as a young actress after starring in Matilda. She also appeared in the great 1990s films Mrs. Doubtfire, A Simple Wish, and Miracle on 34th Street. The former actress decided she’d had enough of Hollywood and wanted to concentrate on her writing. She has had a few minor roles, mostly as a voiceover artist, and she has also performed as a stage actress in a few theater performances. Wilson is mostly a filmmaker and writer who works on indie films away from the hustle, bustle, and spectacle of Hollywood (though she remains friends with her former caretaker and Matilda co-star Danny DeVito).
