Molly Ringwald: Biography
Ringwald, the daughter of blind jazz pianist Bob Ringwald, started her acting career young. At age five, she starred in a stage production of
Alice in Wonderland, playing the dormouse. At age eight, she landed herself a place on TV's New Mickey Mouse Club. Her breakout role was Pretty in Pink (1986).
Ringwald was a member of the so-called Brat Pack. The term was first coined in 1985 after a night out with a reporter of the New Yorker Magazine. The reporter published a sensationalist article calling her and her fellow actors (

The Brat Pack.
Among Ringwald's movies are Fresh Horses
, The Pick Up Artist
, and the movie that got the Brat Pack together: The Breakfast Club. During the period that Ringwald was Hollywood's top female teen, she appeared in countless covers of such publications as Tiger Beat, Teen and many others. She later lived in France for four years and only appeared in French-language films.
Ringwald is currently participating in plays in London, and she performed on Broadway before moving to England. She recently appeared in Not Another Teen Movie — a parody/tribute film of teen movies.
Molly married her long time fiance Valery Lameignere on July 28, 1999, but they have since filed for divorce.
