Jamie Lee Curtis & Danielle Brisebois: Two Paths, One Legacy
A 1983 snapshot captured Jamie Lee Curtis, then Hollywood’s rising “Scream Queen,” and Danielle Brisebois, a beloved TV child star. Both went on to reinvent themselves in powerful ways.
Curtis broke free from horror with hits like Trading Places, True Lies, and Everything Everywhere All at Once, while also becoming an author and advocate for mental health and recovery. Brisebois, meanwhile, traded acting for music—co-writing You Get What You Give with New Radicals and penning Grammy-nominated hits for artists like Natasha Bedingfield and Kelly Clarkson.
Different careers, same lesson: reinvention is the key to longevity. Decades later, both women remain influential forces in entertainment.
