From the iconic Matilda girl to a writer and advocate — here is the full story of what happened to Mara Wilson.

At age five, Mara Wilson charmed audiences in Mrs. Doubtfire, then Miracle on 34th Street — an instant household name.

In 1996, Matilda turned Mara Wilson into a hero for bookish, misunderstood kids — her most beloved role.

As a teenager, Mara Wilson lost interest in acting — and Hollywood in her. She left quietly, with no scandal.

She studied at NYU, wrote the memoir Where Am I Now?, and built a new career in writing and voice acting.
