Ali Astin – Patty Duke’s Granddaughter

Patty Duke kicked off her acting career at a very tender age. We think that it is incredibly impressive that she brought home an Oscar for her performance in The Miracle Worker (1962) when she was 16 years old. The year after that, she started hosting the Patty Duke Show. She kept working until 2015 and then passed away one year after that. Ali, her granddaughter, is very similar to her. The younger woman also started acting when she was young. You probably saw her in The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King when she was 6 years old. She was recently in a horror film called Bad Kids of Crestview Academy.

Bob Elliott was an incredible funny man who was one-half of a comedy pair called Bob and Ray. Of course, his partner was Ray Goulding. Get A Life, Saturday Night Live, and King of the Hill were some of the projects that he worked on. He kept working until he died in 2016. Abby Elliott, his grandkid, took the same path that he did by joining the cast of Saturday Night Live. She was there for 4 years and has since worked on other shows and films.
